On World Rabies Day, September 28, 2022, GlobalVetLink (GVL) announced it added the Equine Rabies Vaccination Certificates to the GlobalVetLink Compliance Assistant platform.

Rabies is fatal to horses, and they are approximately 4 times more likely to contract this disease than dogs.1 Veterinarians urge Equine owners to vaccinate their horses each year to retain immunity against rabies. The GVL Compliance Assistant platform now streamlines the process for issuing equine rabies vaccination certificates, to make a veterinarian's daily tasks easier.

"We are excited to announce the addition of Equine Rabies Vaccination Certificates to the GVL Compliance Assistant platform," stated Stacey Noe, director of product management at GlobalVetLink, in a company release.2 "Veterinarians love our dog and cat rabies vaccination certificates and the addition of equine to the rabies certificate feature means more veterinarians can take advantage of this simple solution."

The GlobalVetLink Compliance Assistant platform is utilized by veterinary practices for the development and electronic submission of compliant health records for companion, production, and equine focused practices. GVL Rabies Vaccination Certificates are available for canine, equine, and feline patients and make the vaccination documentation process simpler with the compliance assistant's workflow for certificate creation.
