Answer

Throughout the Intake and Medical Modules, reference is made to what veterinarians were used for exams and procedures. Example:

To let the techno-wizards of the website know which veterinarians to pull information for, you will need to set up the database. It’s easy and will save a ton of time in the future!

1. To get to the database module, hover over your name in the upper right-hand corner of the Dashboard on the backend of the website. From the drop-down menu, select Rescue Databases.
2. You will now have the Database Menu on your screen from where you can manage all the database information to make using your website easy-peasy!
3. Using the Veterinarians button, you will need to make a listing of the vet clinics your rescue uses. These will be pulled into the medical module when veterinary care is performed.
   HINT: Also add your rescue as a vet if you do your own vaccinations, testing, etc., along with any shelters which may do veterinary care for you before you accept an animal into your rescue.
4. To add a veterinarian, click the “Add A Veterinarian” button (duh!) in the top right-hand corner.
5. In the pop-up box, add the clinic name, address, and other requested information.
6. If you use one primary vet there, add their name; if you use multiple vets at a clinic (or in the case of a shelter you pull from don’t necessarily know the name of the vet) you can leave this part blank. We’ll fill in the multiple veterinarians in a minute.
   HINT: If you are adding your rescue and don’t want to have to list names, feel free to leave this portion blank. Same for a shelter where you may not know what veterinarian performs medical care.
7. If you are a rescue in need of health certificates for travel, signed spay/neuter certificates, or rabies certificates and have arranged it with Buzz for that in your documents section, there is a space for you to upload your veterinarian’s signature (with their approval of course!).Click on choose file which with open your computer directory (NOT the media library). Select the file in .jpg format you want and click Open. That will add the file for later use.
8. If you are going to be using the veterinarian’s signature on documents, please don’t forget to add his license number and expiration in the space provided.
9. If the clinic has multiple veterinarians, scroll down and click on the +Add A Vet link to add them. (Hey, Buzz tries to make it easy to navigate!)
10. Fill in the requested information for that veterinarian.
11. You can add this veterinarian’s signature here in the same manner as before, along with their license number and expiration date.
12. Keep clicking the +Add A Vet link until all the additional vets are added into the database.
13. If there is a specific point of contact person at the clinic, you can enter them under Contact Person by – you guessed it – clicking on the +Add A Person link!
14. And, once again, fill in the requested information.
15. When you are done with adding all the information for this clinic/rescue/shelter, click on the Save button in the lower left-hand corner to tell the wizards of the website to add it to your database.
16. Repeat the process until all entities which provide medical services are entered. If a new one pops up along the way, you can always come back and enter it then as well … OR … here’s a quick tip to enter it directly from the medical page!
    • When entering clinic information in the dog’s medical module, if the vet clinic you need isn’t listed, click on the +Add Veterinarian link at the bottom of the list!
    • That will take you to the database entry form where you can enter the basic information!
      NOTE: You can’t add multiple vets doing it this way, only through the database.
    • Remember to click Save after you’ve entered the information. The techno-wizards will add it to your database and then redirect you back to where you left off in the medical module. Neat huh?

All done now with the Veterinarian database!! Reward yourself with a cookie or two!
