Easily generate a rabies certificate with Shepherd. Create a certificate for an existing rabies vaccination from the patient profile, the treatment history, or from within the invoice. The steps for each process are detailed below.
Step 1: Navigate to the Patient's Profile
Step 2: Select the Vaccinations tab
If the patient's vaccines were not administered in a Shepherd medical record, you'll need to add a manual vaccine using the patient's previous records.

Under the Vaccinations list, there is a section for Certificates:
Select the ‘Add Rabies Certificate’ button
In the Vaccination field, select from the list of vaccinations on the pet's record
Complete the required fields
Save the certificate
This generates and opens the rabies certificate in a new tab in your browser
Print the certificate here if the client needs a paper copy
