What is it?
Onswitch Site Evaluation involves identifying potential demand for veterinary services in a specific area of interest. With you having a particular area in mind we can use the postcode to spark the research OR we can explore the area providing it is clearly defined. The research includes:
• Demographic research into population and households, identifying the pet owner population and therefore potential need for veterinary services
• Identification and mapping of competitors in the area – who are they, how much of the veterinary demand in the area do they consume, is the area over/under vetted
• Drive-time analysis of the site location – exploring where your clients are likely to come from and the area you are required to reach
• Mystery Shop of competitors in the area – identifying any area of opportunity in the initial contact point of client experience to do better
• Online Competitor Analysis – looking at how your potential future competitors perform online and their established audience.
The Site Evaluation can be conducted and written in a two week period and we are able to deliver this for £2,000+VAT.
Testimonials
Morning all
Welcome to the weekend and this great video has just popped up from Heather Vets and we wanted to share
When we look back at March 2020 - seems such a long time ago - none of us knew what the coming months would bring
Nobody had a rule book for “Managing a vet practice in a pandemic”
There wasn’t any history to go Google!
So in the beginning all we had was our own Value set and purpose
Watching practices share such authentic and genuine video updates for their communities has been heartwarming and inspiring to see
We know that for many the idea of talking to camera and sharing how you feel was a big leap and a tad scary
So well done for doing it
It just show how important Values and Purpose are
They guide you through tough times
And when there isn’t an answer, you do what your value set says is the right thing, right now.
So well done Heather McCabe
This is awesome

Another week coming to a close for many of you
Where is this time going!?
So as we ponder “Eat Out To Help Out” and lots of social Interaction made us think about the impact on the team “bubble” at work
So you have all been great at keeping in “bubble” teams & managing risk of “Track & Trace” close down- so where are you now?
As teams socialise and meet folks outside their bubbles, is your risk greater between colleagues now than the clients?
One to ponder as many of you have clients back in reception if not consult rooms
Where are your risks now?
Team or client or both?
Guidance from BVA indicates full PPE between teams will be a Track&Trace exemption
So not our area of expertise at all but asking the question
Where is your risk today?
Social bubbles have become very stretched ?
What are your thoughts?
How are you managing it?

Evening all
It has been a very interesting few weeks
We have been doing lots of 3 hour consultancy and training sessions with practices to help them find ways of smoothing their workflow, managing the client flow and reducing the team workload
Building on previous debates over the last few weeks on here it is good to see these sessions are finding quick wins to help practices reduce volumes of workload, in the main the inbound call
By mapping the individual steps each practice has for client for the everyday calls - vaccines neuter repeat meds pay bills etc - we can spot duplication or repetition or missed opportunity to smooth the flow and ease the workload for teams and make it simpler and smoother for clients

So after all the sessions so far ( bookable via MSD and EasyDirectDebits) there are a few common threads
So rather than making an unnecessary step more efficient - get rid of it altogether!
Solutions so far:
1. Get more PDQ machines Get paid dont ask them to call back to pay!
2. Get an outside “Marshal” to arrive folks & manage meds dispense and general keeping the car park moving - stop the “ Ring us when you are here”
3. Preempt repeat medicine - you know when they will run out so call owners to sort Repeat script or checkup , take payment and arrange ship or collect
4. Get reminder calls outbound! Stop the inbound Calls . Call owners Book appointments
5. Use your online booking .Help folks book and sort themselves
6. Use “web live chat” to solve those “ are you open ?” “Are you doing dentals yet?” Stop the inbound call
7. Put your Health Plan joining up details on line!
8. Paint numbers on your parking bays ( make bays if you dont have bays) then you can ask owners what bay they in if you need to!
9. Create a home worker rota Do out bound calls Follow up post ops , booster calls , chase payments etc
10. Get a medicine delivery subscription set up to manage repeat ongoing parasite and long term meds!
11. Use video consulting for post op checks, nurse consults, any triage consults if owner in doubt , to keep traffic flow lighter Offer the option some will do
Each practice so far has found a few key steps that will help
