A look back at the top 10 veterinary handouts of 2014

December 25, 2014

How many of our most popular handouts did you use this year?

We at dvm360 compiled the 10 most downloaded veterinary client handouts and practice forms of 2014. Enjoy a look back, help yourself to any handouts you missed and don't forget you can check out hundreds of forms and handouts at dvm360.com/forms.

1. Understanding Ebola: Fear is high, but risk is minimal

As the country and the world struggled to manage the 2014 Ebola outbreak, concern over public health was high. And pet owners had questions and concerns after Spanish health officials ordered the euthanasia of an Ebola patient's dog out of fear the pet could spread the disease. Response was different in the United States. Health officials decided to isolate and monitor the 1-year-old Cavalier King Charles spaniel belonging to Nina Pham, a nurse who contracted the virus after caring for an Ebola patient at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas. We hope this handout provided your clients with facts about Ebola and helped them better understand the minimal risk of contracting Ebola in the United States. Get the handout.
