LeoYeAI/openclaw-master-skills

Emergency first aid and health assessment for dogs and cats. Use when someone's pet is injured, choking, may have eaten something toxic, is overheating, or when the owner needs to decide if it's an emergency vet visit or can wait.

mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills

Write clear at-home care instructions for a pet owner after a veterinary visit, procedure, or hospitalization. Use when asked to write discharge instructions, go-home notes, post-op care, or medication instructions for a pet owner. Produces plain-language home-care instructions: medications (what/how much/when/how), activity restrictions, what to watch for, warning signs that mean call-now, the recheck plan, and emergency contacts — written so a worried owner can actually follow them.

anesthesia-protocols

OpenVet-Projects/VetClaw

client-discharge-notes

mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills

Write clear at-home care instructions for a pet owner after a veterinary visit, procedure, or hospitalization. Use when asked to write discharge instructions, go-home notes, post-op care, or medication instructions for a pet owner. Produces plain-language home-care instructions: medications (what/how much/when/how), activity restrictions, what to watch for, warning signs that mean call-now, the recheck plan, and emergency contacts — written so a worried owner can actually follow them.

euthanasia-conversation

mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills

Guide a veterinary team through a compassionate end-of-life conversation with a pet owner — quality-of-life assessment, the recommendation, and the logistics. Use when asked to help discuss euthanasia, assess quality of life, prepare for a difficult end-of-life conversation, or support an owner facing the decision. Produces a quality-of-life framework, empathetic language for the conversation, how to answer the hard questions (is it time, will it hurt, should the kids be there), and the practical steps (the process, aftercare options, grief support).

treatment-plan-estimate

mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills

Build a veterinary treatment plan with tiered options and a cost estimate to discuss with a pet owner. Use when asked to prepare a treatment plan, create an estimate for an owner, present diagnostic/treatment options, or have the cost conversation in a vet practice. Produces a clear plan (recommended vs. acceptable-alternative vs. minimum), line-item cost ranges, the medical rationale in plain language, and how to frame the money conversation with empathy so the owner can make an informed, unpressured decision.

vet-estimate-decoder

mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills

Decode a veterinary treatment estimate — what each line is for, which items are core vs precautionary, and how to have the options conversation nobody offers you. Use when someone asks 'is this vet estimate reasonable', 'decode my vet's treatment plan', 'do we need all these tests', or 'I can't afford this vet bill what are my options'. Produces a line-by-line decode with core/precautionary/comfort triage, the questions that surface the tiered options vets keep in reserve, and the payment and assistance paths.

mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills

Build a preventive-care (wellness) plan for a pet by species, breed, and life stage. Use when asked to create a wellness plan, plan preventive care, set up a vaccination/parasite schedule, or advise an owner on routine care for a puppy/kitten/adult/senior pet. Produces a life-stage-appropriate schedule — vaccinations, parasite prevention, dental, nutrition, screening diagnostics, and behavioral guidance — with the rationale, so an owner sees preventive care as a plan, not a series of surprise visits.
