Vetsheet Safeguarding

Report suspected non-accidental injury. Without putting your clinic at risk.

A confidential, AI-triaged reporting channel embedded in Vetsheet. Vet identity protected. Cases routed to the right authority in your jurisdiction — across Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan, Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, USA, UK, and Australia.

Use it from a caseHow it works

Why this exists

Vets are often the first and only outside professional to see an animal whose injuries do not match the story behind them. Reporting that suspicion has historically meant cold-calling an under-resourced agency, navigating jurisdictional ambiguity, or fearing professional and personal backlash from the owner. Most concerns never get reported. Most reported concerns never get triaged. Vetsheet Safeguarding fixes both ends.

Indicators it may be time to use Safeguarding

These mirror the standard non-accidental injury reference framework used in human pediatrics and veterinary safeguarding literature.

  • Patterned injuries — linear, geometric, paired marks
  • Injuries of different healing ages on the same animal
  • Owner-given history that does not fit the clinical findings
  • Delay in seeking care for a clearly painful injury
  • Clinic-shopping behavior across multiple providers
  • Repeated injuries on the same animal
  • Burn patterns (thermal, chemical, cigarette)
  • Ligature marks; internal injuries without external source
  • Multiple animals in the household with parallel injuries
  • Neglect indicators: severe matting, untreated chronic wounds, ammonia burns, emaciation

How it works

Step 1

Document during the visit

On the patient case page, tap the Safeguarding button. The form auto-attaches the pet, owner, visit case ID, and your prior records snapshot so you do not retype clinical context.

Step 2

AI triage in seconds

Our model checks indicators against an NAI reference framework (patterned bruising, multi-age fractures, owner explanation inconsistency, clinic-shopping pattern), then assigns a triage bucket and false-positive risk.

Step 3

Human admin review

The Peqaboo Safeguarding team reviews every flagged case. Low-confidence or borderline cases are clarified before any escalation. Nothing is auto-forwarded.

Step 4

Authority handoff (when warranted)

When evidence supports it, we generate a localized case file in the appropriate language and route it to the right authority in your jurisdiction — AFCD HK, SPCA, Taiwan 動保處, Japan 動物愛護センター, Singapore AVS, US animal control, UK RSPCA, and more.

Confidentiality model

Vet identity protected

Stored only as an audit-only field. The admin queue surfaces "Vet from {clinic}, {region}" — never the individual.

No owner notification

The pet owner is never told a safeguarding report was filed. Your professional safety comes first.

Audit-trail decryption

Any access to identity-bearing fields requires explicit admin action that is logged immutably.

Multi-jurisdiction by design

Authority handoff is region-aware. Submit from your clinic; we generate a localized case file in the right language and route it to the correct authority for the case's jurisdiction. New regions added as Vetsheet expands.

FAQ

Will the pet owner know I reported?

No. The Peqaboo Safeguarding team treats vet identity as confidential. The pet owner is not notified that a safeguarding report was filed. Your name is not on any case file we forward to authorities.

Can authorities compel disclosure of my identity?

A formal written request from an investigating officer in your jurisdiction can compel us to identify the submitting clinician under applicable law. We will notify you before any disclosure and only act on a properly issued request.

What if I am wrong?

NAI suspicion is just that — suspicion. Our triage is conservative by design and false-positive risk is scored on every case. Low-confidence or borderline cases are monitored or clarified, not escalated. You will not be penalized for filing a good-faith concern that does not stand up to review.

Which authorities do you route to outside Hong Kong?

Per jurisdiction. We maintain a registry covering Hong Kong (AFCD, SPCA HK, Police), Taiwan (動保處, 1959 hotline, Police), Japan (動物愛護センター, Police, JAWS), Korea (APQA, Police, KARA), Singapore (AVS NParks, SPCA, Police), Malaysia (DVS, SPCA Selangor, PDRM), USA (local animal control, ASPCA, Police), UK (RSPCA, Police), and Australia (RSPCA Australia, Police). New jurisdictions added as Vetsheet expands.

Is this part of my Vetsheet subscription?

Yes. Safeguarding is included for every Vetsheet account at no extra cost. We treat NAI reporting as core veterinary infrastructure, not an upsell.

Where is the data stored?

Encrypted at rest in Google Cloud, with vet identity stored as an audit-only field that is never returned in the public-facing admin queue. Decryption requires explicit admin action that is logged to an immutable audit trail.

Already on Vetsheet?

The Safeguarding button is on every patient case detail screen. No setup, no separate workflow.
