What is Primary Healthcare?
Primary Healthcare in veterinary medicine is an emerging concept. We have adapted our vision of Primary Healthcare from a similar concept in human medicine. Primary Healthcare promotes overall animal wellness and the ability to stay healthy, get better, live with disease, and cope with end-of-life.
Primary Healthcare in veterinary medicine is a collaborative effort and is dependent on multiple factors; preventative healthcare, education, effective communication between client and healthcare delivery team, quality nutrition and health promotion, illness treatment, and rehabilitation.
