For farm parks & animal care
The animals and the team, kept in one place
A farm park runs two jobs at once: a visitor attraction and a working operation with animals to account for. miaHQ keeps the rota, the daily rounds and the medicine records together — so the care is done, logged, and ready the day an inspector arrives.
The day, as it actually runs
The bits that never quite settle
Medicine doses logged in a book, with withdrawal dates worked out by hand.
A daily care round that lives in one keeper’s head.
Records spread across a folder, a spreadsheet and a whiteboard.
The rota, the visitor side and the animal side all managed separately.
The animal side
Records that are ready when someone asks
- Animal care opens on an at-a-glance overview — medicines and health checks due today, and anything your team has flagged — so you know what needs you before you walk the round.
- Keep a record for each animal — identity, holding, and whether it is food-producing.
- A daily care round staff complete on their phone, so nothing is missed on a busy weekend.
- It all lives alongside the rota — the same app your team already clocks in with, not a second system for the animal side.
Medicines & health checks
The medicine book that keeps itself
- Log medicines against the animal and miaHQ works out the withdrawal date for you.
- The medicine book for the holding keeps itself — what was bought and disposed of, with dates and batch numbers.
- Routine health checks run to their own schedule, and one falling due becomes a job for the right team — never a red alarm.
- Export it all as an inspection-ready PDF when someone asks to see it.
Shaped by the regulations
The records an inspector recognises
- Medicine records keep what the Veterinary Medicines Regulations 2013 ask for — product, batch number, dose, supplier, the date given and the withdrawal date, against the animal treated.
- Purchases for the holding are recorded with the supplier’s name and address, date, quantity and batch number — the acquisition record the regulations describe.
- Once written, a medicine record cannot be deleted — supporting the five-year retention the regulations require.
- Risk assessments, staff training records and signed cleaning checks — the paperwork the industry Code of Practice on animal contact expects — build up as the team works, ready for an inspection or an audit.
The visitor side
Same calm system for the front of house
- Admissions, café and events staff clock in the same way as the keepers — phone, tap or tablet.
- Opening and closing checks for the shop, the café and the play area, all signed and timed.
- One rota across the whole site, split into areas so cover gaps show at a glance.
- Press Fill with Mia and the open shifts fill themselves around leave and availability, so keepers stay on the rounds they are trained for.
One team, area by area
The right people see the right work
- Give the head keeper the animal rounds and their own team, and nothing beyond it.
- Renewals and routine health checks surface quietly as they fall due, never as a red alarm.
- Post the seasonal briefing as must-read and see exactly who has confirmed it.
