Client Behavior Questionnaires for use in Primary Care
General questionnaire:
This one page questionnaire is best used as a general screening tool in primary care practices. Because it can be filled out quickly, clients ideally would fill it out each time that they come in to the practice for an appointment with their pet. In this way, the behavioral history can be taken in part prior to the appointment and a patient behavioral history can be maintained in the file with little effort from the team.
