RxWorks

Animal Shelters vary in the services they offer to the public.  They all offer an animal rescue and placement service, however some offer full veterinary services, typically aimed at low-income clients.  Some restrict their services to neutering and vaccination.  Some animal shelters offer boarding facilities and pet training.  

RxWorks can help in all of these activities.

Features for Your Animal Shelter

Recording Animal Behavior

One of the main reasons an animal may be abandoned is due to its behavior.  RxWorks includes a section in each patient record that is devoted to recording behavior.  Use this feature to record information a new adopter needs to know. This helps avoid any surprises for the client and reduces the possibility of a pet’s return.

Animal Placement Records

We provide the capability of recording each owner of an animal.  This is a very useful tool to keep track of animals that have gone through adoption and then returned to the shelter.  Reasons for the return are immediately available to you.

Training Services

Use the RxWorks’ Clipboards to track bookings and waiting lists for your animal care and training classes.  The information can also be used to ask for donations or recruit new volunteers.

Administration Services

Keep track of volunteer and staff schedules with our Clipboards.
Produce statistics on new and placed pets with RxWorks’ flexible Reports functions.  You can also analyze length of stay and other important factors.
 

Use Marketing to Increase Your Donations

Use client records to record the adopter’s details.  This then becomes a source of contact information for appeals and donations.  The mail/merge capabilities in the Reports section of RxWorks provide an easy-to-use tool for printing personalized campaign letters.

It’s important to every shelter that clients are kept up-to-date with anything that helps improve    donations.  This is marketing.

Why not notify clients of any significant changes in your staff, animals or facilities. This is just one of the possible marketing activities.  You can post them on your website as well, but there is no certainty your clients will access that.  An email or personal letter has more chance of being read.

RxWorks lets you easily select the clients that match the profile you want.  You can then automatically merge data from the database to send Microsoft Word letters or emails.  There is no manual effort other than mailing letters.

24/7 help with our Support Team

The nature of an emergency is that it is not a scheduled event.  Just as most of you provide 24 x 7 services for your animals, you need the same from your software vendor.  Especially as Murphy’s Law says that you will need support at the most inconvenient time.  

RxWorks has dedicated support offices located in Australia, the United Kingdom and United States.  The time zones in these locations mean the RxWorks Support Team are able to help you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

We are there when you need us.
