Vets mental health

So many vets struggle with work-life balance

Sadly, though vet mental health awareness has improved vastly over the last decade or so, it really is so hard for clinic managers and owners to genuinely make a difference in their staff’s quality of life and daily experience at work. Without addressing this, clinics can suffer from higher turnover and struggle to keep their clients.

Along with that and now new VSB requirements for more direct involvement of vets for dispensing medications, as well as ever-increasing Gap pay usage causing more pressure between consults, it’s time to act.

Writing notes manually is a huge waste of time

Vets spend so much of their valuable time just documenting things that they have likely already explained during the consult. In this day and age, vets manually writing their own notes is becoming untenable. There are simply too many duties to be performed - clinics are gradually being forced to increase the time allocated for each appointment, thus fitting in fewer appointments each day.

This is something tangible you can do for your staff to really make their workdays easier. And the best part is: it’s easy to implement and affordable.

Automate note writing at your clinic

Astro Scribe intelligently listens to your appointments and writes notes for your vets. It picks up on implied information and completely ignores small talk (think of it as having a professional in the consult room with you, writing your notes on your behalf). It also writes in exactly your preferred format every single time.
