RaptorMed is very easy to use, requires little in the way of computing resources and has a very long list of useful functions and features that are designed to improve staff efficiency and the quality of care. In addition, because there is powerful database running behind-the-scenes, the data that is collected in the system is now completely searchable. With RaptorMed, you can "go paperless" since there is no need for traditional paper records anymore.
Your patient records can now be made available on the web so your finders can
track their animals
and receive up-to-the-moment updates on patient progress. This page also estimates your expenditures
and total cost to treat each patient and this allows the public to get an in-depth understanding of
just what it takes to treat injured wildlife. There is a DONATE button that is sure to generate new
income for your organization. Here is a screenshot of a typical patient page (click it to enlarge). At Carolina Raptor Center, we
raised over $7,000 from donations for the care of a single bald eagle chick using this page!
