How to use Active Patients (GA, Hospital, Dental, Grooming, Boarding Lab)

Creating your active patient list for the day will streamline your workflow and bring consistency to the team. Any chart e.g. hospital, dental, GA that is created from the practice management system will automatically appear on the active patient list within VetCheck until the chart is submitted.

Under Active Patients:

  • GA tab is where you will find your surgical cases
  • Hospital tab is where you will find your hospital cases
  • Dental tab is where you will find your dental cases
  • Lab tab is for lab samples ready for processing
  • Boarding for boarders
  • Grooming for pets admitted for grooming




Please note you can update your filter list in the settings menu
