Best Practices for Health Records

🔍 Document Everything

Record even minor health observations. What seems insignificant today might be important for diagnosing future issues.

📅 Be Consistent

Update health records immediately when administering treatments. Accurate timing is crucial for effective treatment tracking.

📸 Use Photos

Take photos of symptoms, injuries, or recovery progress. Visual documentation is invaluable for tracking improvement.

🔄 Complete Treatment Cycles

Always complete prescribed treatment courses, even if symptoms improve. Update the status to "Cured" only after full recovery.

📊 Review Patterns

Regularly review health reports to identify patterns. This helps with preventive care and breeding decisions.

Common Health Scenarios

  1. Create an ailment for the first affected rabbit
  2. Note all symptoms and environmental factors
  3. If it spreads, create linked ailments for other rabbits
  4. Apply group treatments if treating multiple rabbits
  5. Monitor and update daily until resolved

  1. Create an ailment with detailed injury description
  2. Take photos for documentation
  3. Record initial treatment (cleaning, bandaging)
  4. Set up daily treatment tasks for wound care
  5. Document healing progress with photos
  6. Note any complications or infections

  1. Create a recurring task for parasite prevention
  2. When administering, create a treatment record
  3. Note the medication and dosage used
  4. Set withdrawal periods if applicable
  5. Schedule the next treatment date

Troubleshooting Health Records

Ensure the ailment is created first before adding treatments. Treatments must be linked to an existing ailment. Check that you're selecting the correct rabbit when creating the treatment.

When using treatment templates, ensure you've selected "Create tasks from template" option. Check that the template has task items configured. Tasks will appear in the calendar based on the start date you specify.

Verify that health records were created for the correct rabbit. Check if you have the health module enabled in your subscription plan. Refresh the page to ensure latest data is displayed.
