Hospitalization

Hospitalization tracking: room, treatment plan and discharge

In VetBis an inpatient is placed in a room, the diagnosis and treatment plan are written to the record, and the status is followed from Admitted to Discharged. Post-op patients come from surgery records, the same room types serve the pet hotel, and the cost ties into billing.

        Room capacity and occupancy

        Rooms are defined in the clinic settings; each room's type, capacity and whether it is occupied show on the ward board.

        • There are five room types: standard, intensive care, isolation, recovery and boarding.
        • Capacity and occupancy are kept per room.
        • The owner's phone number stays on the admission record.
