Is your veterinary practice prepared to keep providing medical care when disaster strikes?

A Continuity of Operations Plan (COOP) goes beyond a traditional disaster checklist, providing a roadmap for keeping essential operations running during an emergency.

Your COOP should cover everything from protecting patient records and communicating with your team to processing payroll and continuing patient care. We know there are a lot of moving parts to consider, which is why we break down the logistics in our latest blog!

The Unbreakable Clinic: Five Reasons Why a Continuity Plan Is Your Ultimate Safeguard outlines five essential areas of practice operations and and provides you with a downloadable template to create your own COOP.

This is the third of four sessions in our program for current P10 participants, and we look forward to reconvening with the group in December for their graduation ceremony and capstone class.
