Health, veterinary and social services

For already some years now, the health care sector has been experiencing an upswing. This branch includes institutions, laws and processes, which contribute to the well-being and restrict the risk of spreading diseases. Due to the demografic development, increasing costs and new products, the health care sector has to face immense challenges.

Veterinary services are part of the public health service, which include the following topics: animal disease control and zoonoses, consumer health protection, food hygiene, veterinary dispensing legislation, controls of the import and export of animals, controls of animal clinics, animal shelters, rendering plants and animal welfare.

Social Services are placed within a social state system and are tied to the respective political social system. As one of the pillars of a social market economy, it is one of the basic tasks of a state. A distinction is made between public bodies (federal, state and local) and independent bodies (voluntary welfare organisations).

As a result of demographic change, our society is getting older and people consider their health to be increasingly important. The rearing of healthy animals is the basis of healthy animal-based products. In order to ensure consumer safety and confidence, there are numerous controls and inspections during the whole process. For all these related processes a focus on quality management is indispensable.
