Vocabulary

This area allows you to view and enable the Appointment Reasons, Species and Breeds.  Select the drop down arrow to select each option.  

For multi-site practices, this can be specified by site via the drop-down option.  Specific Appointment Reasons, Species and Breeds can also be searched for using the Search bar.

Appointment Reasons - These are synched from the Merlin library of Administration > Appointments > Appointment Reasons.  The ‘Duration' column for each Appointment Reason requires a duration entering, in order for this to sync accurately to MWI Pet.  For more information, please see Libraries > Libraries > Appointments.

As default, all will display in MWI Pet as disabled and it is the practices responsibility to activate the ones they would like their clients to see when booking an appointment via MWI Pet.  

Terminology for these Appointment Reasons may be refined by the practice by adding a Translation.  For example, you may have an Appointment Reason saved in Merlin as ‘Booster’, but may want to amend the wording your clients see to make it as user friendly as possible, so when they’re booking an appointment, they see the Appointment Reason as ‘Booster Vaccination’.



To amend the wording, click the pencil edit icon on the right hand side of the Appointment Reason, type the Translation in the blank box, then press Save.

Notifications can be set against specific Appointment Reasons.  These Notifications will alert the client with relevant pieces of advice or information when booking the appointment.  For example, having an Appointment Reason of ‘Booster’, and providing a short message so the client remembers their vaccination card.

Emergency notifications can be set against specific Appointment Reasons.  For example, activating an Appointment Reason named ‘Breathing difficulties’.  You may wish to set an emergency notification against this to state that the client must call the practice immediately.  If an emergency notification is set, this will instantly stop the appointment booking process when that Appointment Reason has been selected, and a ‘Call Now' button will display to the client.


Species -  These are synched from the Merlin library of Administration > Patients > Species.   For more information, please see Libraries > Libraries > Patients.

As default, all will display in MWI Pet as disabled and it is the practices responsibility to activate the ones they would like their clients to see when registering their pet via MWI Pet.  

Terminology for these Species may be refined by the practice by adding a Translation.  For example, the Species in Merlin may be named ‘Canine’,  but you may want to amend the wording your clients see to make it as user friendly as possible, so when they’re registering a new pet, they see the Species as ‘Dog’. 

To amend the wording, click the pencil edit icon on the right hand side of the Species, and type the Translation in the blank box, then press Save.




Breeds - These are synched from the Merlin library of Administration > Patients > Breeds.  For more information, please see Libraries > Libraries > Patients.

As default, all will display in MWI Pet as disabled and it is the practices responsibility to activate the ones they would like their clients to see when registering their pet via MWI Pet.  

Terminology for these Breeds may be refined by the practice by adding a Translation.  For example, the Breed in Merlin may be named ‘West Highland White Terrier’,  but you may want to amend the wording your clients see to make it as user friendly as possible, so when they’re registering a new pet, they see the Breed as ‘Westie’.



To amend the wording, click the pencil edit icon on the right hand side of the Breed, and type the Translation in the blank box, then press Save.


When a client is logged into their MWI Pet account, MWIAH’s Terms & Conditions can be viewed by selecting the ‘Terms & Conditions Link’, and the ‘Privacy Policy Link’ can be viewed.  This contains a hyper-link within the information, for clients to view the practices Privacy Policy. 

Additional Links’ can be added.  Any links saved in here will be accessible to the client when they are logged into their MWI Pet account. 

Please note - these must be URL links, and not links to any locally stored documents. 

Examples of links could include Price Lists, Poison Guides, Owner Factsheets and Healthcare Plan information.
