Increasing access to veterinary care
Veterinary staff shortages and an increase in household pets related to COVID-19 have made it harder to find veterinary care than ever before. This is true for the general public, and even more so for non-profit societies that serve large numbers of animals with limited funds. Our society was created to help find space, time and staff to provide high volume, subsidized, primary healthcare services for these rescues.
Let’s work together!
At IRVS we want to encourage collaboration and cooperation between societies, vet clinics, and communities. We genuinely believe that by sharing ideas and resources we can do more to help achieve our common goal – caring for animals and families in need.
