HEALTH PLANNING

We offer a health planning programme that meets all requirements of QMS inspections and the Land Management Contract Animal Health and Welfare option.

The health plan is drawn up annually between yourself and your own vet and usually consists of your vet sitting down with you for about an hour while discussing and noting the health of your herd in general, vaccination programmes, bio-security and anything else that may be relevant. It provides a great opportunity to glean advice from your vet and it is also helpful to and to flag up problems that have previously been ignored.

You should receive a printed copy of your health plan shortly after your visit.

We issue reminders for tests due based on previous testing dates but it is up to you to telephone your vet to book any veterinary procedures including health planning.
