Veterinary services are generally considered public goods; however, there are exceptions. One example where negative externalities could potentially harm human and economic welfare is through vaccination of livestock against contagious animal diseases. No doubt the government plays a legitimate role in providing veterinary services despite these challenges. These include providing general supervision of the overall health of livestock; responding to contagious animal disease outbreaks that impact people; monitoring and controlling food and drug quality; assuring food and dairy product safety, and training veterinary personnel.

While most veterinarians work in private practice, others also provide their services for government agencies or specialized organizations that involve management or leadership responsibilities; it’s therefore essential for veterinarians to have basic managerial abilities.

Veterinary services are an example of a craft sector where professional norms and peer expectations play a prominent role in staff behavior, facilitating an approach to management that emphasizes decentralization with operational decision-making handled by front line operations managers. Therefore, to build a responsive system of veterinary services will require adequate deconcentration of government operations as well as increased participation by livestock department officials in policy formulation and operational decision-making processes; additionally including beneficiaries’ assessments and viewpoints from suppliers will help create realistic implementation of policies, strategies and operations.
