Written by experts
Brought to you by the trusted team behind Standards, Plumb’s, and Clinician’s Brief.
What you get
Everything from aggression to zinc-responsive dermatosis
This growing library includes hundreds of veterinary client handouts on common clinical signs, test results, diagnoses, procedures, and even vaccinations, so you can support pet owners with ease.
Stay ahead of common questions
Informed pet owners are better prepared to make confident choices for their pet’s care. By covering the essentials, clinical handouts reassure pet owners and save you a round or two of phone tag.
Provide accurate guidance in simple language
It’s easy for pet owners to feel overwhelmed when we explain their pet’s condition. Help them bring home crucial information in terms the whole family can understand.
Share expert advice plus practical perspective
These handouts are written by practicing veterinarians and reviewed by veterinary specialists, and they contain reliable, up-to-date recommendations in a consistent, easy-to-follow format.
How it works
Effective, efficient pet owner education
Pet owner education is one of the most essential—and potentially time-consuming—parts of practice. Use these handouts to start discussions and help owners remember key details even after they head home.
Search easily from any device
Start typing a sign or diagnosis (like azotemia or whipworm), and Standards will automatically offer results you can view, print, or email.
Print to package with discharge paperwork
Whether you’ve selected one handout or several, they’re easy to print (along with any Plumb's drug handouts) and provide at discharge.
Email handouts directly to pet owners
Send digital copies in seconds using the built-in email form, without giving away your contact information.
Make record-keeping easier
Use the blind copy email feature—or print an extra copy—to add to the patient’s medical record and document what was reviewed with the pet owner.
