I dont have a problem with this.

BUT......

Seriously, when are our admins going to drag themselves into the 21st century and produce an eBook? A digital online form of the medical treatment book, you know, like every other industry in the world uses......

Fastrack is a brilliant system which allows you to do everything online while your having a cuppa, even scratch a dog for a bogus injury when you don't like the boxdraw.....but then you have to go back to the 1980's into the filing cabinet, retrieve the sheets of paper that are stapled together (known as a medical treatment book) and find a pen to fill it out.
And I'm sorry to say that when I spend 2 years overseas, I won't be carrying the medical treatment book with me.

C'mon folks, this is so simple.

I do have a problem with these records as even though u get a vet to sign off on them we as the trainers have to take responsibility.U can't use the vets word for withholding periods trainers get full liability.With that in mind they are a waste of time as every time the dog is presented u have no recourse if things go wrong.Thats taking the literal wording of the rules which ultimately is what brings u undone.

the bigger picture is not about making it easier ,, its all about making it as hard and as difficult as is possible, so people will get sick of the sh.t and walk away ,,

Agree that books can be used against you at inquiry's but also should work for you. One way traffic.

No trouble with keeping Treatment records here in NSW. Govt stated we are of low IQ and mostly Illiterate! They can't expect to much.

It's not that it's hard to fill out a paper form. It's just that I know of some goat herders in Southern Ethiopia who complete their transactions digitally, yet Aussie greyhound trainers are still using pen and paper.

Not sure if I have missed something - tell me if I have.
Page 4 of the record treatment book clearly mentions about - method of record keeping. the person

in charge of a greyhound may keep this record in any format they desire.
I have recently changed to a computer format, as I find it so much more desirable - I look

forward to entering the information opposed to before when it was dread.
I don't believe that the options have changed.
I just keep all of the explanations from the record book in a hands on folder and also the part

where you fill in your name and address, as acknowledgement and for reference with common

acronyms.

An ebook for me would not work as my internet is so unreliable.

Everyone needs to find the method of record keeping that works for them, you can format your own sheets without staples, as the constant turning will send you loopy. Just make sure that the info. that is required is there.
no matter how you record your stuff and within the timeline as now given - on the day of the treatment, 24hr period 12.01am to 12 midnight on the day.)

Now that the actual time needs to be included as at 22/08/18, once again find what works clearly for you.
I may put the time in my phone note section, and when I get back inside I will transfer the info.

Thank goodness I came in when I did to get the hang of all the changes and the ones that were being spoken about. It made it easier to progress.
Yes it is a big deal when you are managing
heaps but you have to find your harmony.
Imagine being not computer savvy and you cannot get into the computer stuff, well you have to find a way that sits with you.

Now with the vet sign off, I thought that was being introduced in 2020.
And from memory, it was altered as well.
I would have to go back to the the changes that were shown and explained for the code of practice.
I've seen that there is current information about a vet having to prescribe any human-use medicine or compounded product must be prescribed by a vet, as in the greyhound monthly.
And about vet chem products being registered.

I hope that the above makes sense, if not just record it somewhere and get back to me!
If I don't make it back, I'm still walking the dogs - for tranquillity and peace purposes.
