Thinking Of Taking Your Veterinary Services On The Road? What To Know

If you are currently doing service calls to farm animals and other domestic pets on location, it's important to have the right equipment to do your job thoroughly. For your traveling veterinarian business, you want to look into getting equipment that you can use at any time or place.

You want to offer the services that other people can't, and you want to offer convenience for the pet owners. Here are items worth budgeting for so you can get great clients and make people and their pets happy.

Handheld Sonography Machine

If you need to look at a pregnant animal while you're on the road, or if you want to get a clearer view of an organ or a mass on an animal, the handheld sonography machine will come in handy. You'll be able to find out if there is a problem with a pregnancy or delivery to prevent emergency problems and you'll be able to confirm a pregnancy. These devices are worth the investment, especially for farmers or breeders that can't bring their animals to your office easily.

Portable IV Treatments

If you have to go to a sick call or emergency, they may need emergency IV treatments to help get them healthy, or to keep them strong enough to get to a surgical center or animal hospital. With portable IV treatments, you won't have to worry about these concerns.

Mobile Surgical Options

Have a service that allows you to perform minor surgical procedures inside of a vehicle. You will have to get a vehicle that is sanitary and has shelving and electricity for equipment, but being able to transport or treat an animal from a vehicle allows you to treat animals that can't easily get to and from the office.

A mobile pet care service will appeal to many people that don't have time to go to the veterinarian's office when they have to work, and it allows you to treat the pet quickly if there is an emergency. You don't want to find out that animal died because they had an emergency problem that needed to be treated where they were, and that you could have saved the animal with an emergency service. Set a budget to get the service up and going, and then contact a supplier, such as Keebomed, to find out what equipment you will need and can afford to purchase to start treating animals.
