Animal Bite Intake Form
Anyone who is bitten or scratched by an animal (domestic, stray, or wild) that breaks the skin should wash the bite wound with soap and water immediately and consult a doctor who will treat the wound and report the bite to the health jurisdiction where the bite occurred.
Rabies is a deadly, though preventable viral disease that may be transmitted to humans through the bite of an infected animal where the animal’s saliva gets into an open wound or mucous membrane.
