For Your Information
N.J.A.C. 13:44-4.4 establishes requirements for licensed veterinarians who sign animal health certificates, adoption forms or “Fit for Purchase” forms. A licensed veterinarian who provides services to a pet shop, pound, shelter or adopt facility must sign and print his or her name and license number on each animal’s health certificate, adoption form or “Fit for Purchase” form and on any other document which may be given to a consumer at the time of purchase or adoption that attests to findings made, care rendered or care prescribed for that animal by a licensed veterinarian. Additionally, N.J.A.C. 13:44-4.1 provides the requirements a veterinarian must follow when issuing prescriptions, including the establishment of a doctor-client-patient relationship, and the prohibition on the indiscriminate dispensing or prescribing of medication. Licensees must also ensure that documentation of all examinations, diagnoses, treatments, and prescriptions are maintained in the patient’s medical record, pursuant to N.J.A.C. 13:44-4.9.
