Figure 10: Overall Themes of Suggested Actions for Improved Antibiotic Use
The suggested actions, based on Tables 5-8 above, will be further described according to the
four overall themes in the following sections. It should be re-emphasized that while the suggested
actions are attributed to the participating veterinarians, this does not represent agreement among
project participants, as the project did not include efforts to seek a consensus of opinion.
