Presentation Transcript

  1. Veterinarians have a responsibility to provide out of hours treatment for their patients. For a long time this meant exhausting working hours for vets. It was not uncommon for an individual vet to get called out two to three times a night for emergencies after a long day at the surgery. This took a huge toll on their families and lead to widespread professional burn-out.

  2. Services ARRIVAL No appointment is necessary if your pet becomes ill out of hours. When you arrive you will be met by our experienced, friendly receptionist who will assess your pet’s status. If your pet is critically ill he or she will be taken immediately to the treatment room and stabilised. If your pet is stable on arrival, you will be asked to complete a form with your details before being taken to a consultation room to await the vet on duty.

  3. Services CONSULTATION The veterinarian will perform a thorough physical examination and recommend either outpatient treatment to be followed up with your local veterinarian, or hospitalisation with the appropriate treatment and diagnostic tests. The veterinarian will discuss all this with you. Please ask any questions about the pet's condition and treatment as it is very important to us that you feel comfortable with our proposed treatment.

  4. Services COMMUNICATION While your pet is in hospital we welcome you to phone for an update on how your pet is progressing. We will always contact you if there is any change to the treatment necessary for your pet or any change in their condition.

  5. Services DISCHARGE All hospitalised patients need to be picked up by 10.00am Monday or 8.00am Tuesday to Friday unless it is a public holiday. If your pet requires ongoing hospitalisation we will discuss this with you so treatment can be continued by your own veterinarian. If you don't have a local vet we can make recommendations. A report on your pet's treatment is given to you and a copy forwarded to your vet.

  6. Facilities RADIOLOGY Our facility has modern computerized Digital Xray machines which allow highest quality diagnostic radiographs. The use of digital equipment allows fast interpretation and easily allows second opinions from more senior clinicians offsite. Digital copies of radiographs are available at discharge from hospital.

  7. Facilities ULTRASOUND Aids with imaging of abdomen, chest and all soft tissues. Our practice keeps machines up to date and most importantly all our staff keep their skills up to date with regular continuing education workshops. We currently use the Esoate mylab 70 machine which provides imaging power of the highest quality for all emergency needs.

  8. Facilities BLOOD BANK We maintain standing stocks of dog blood and blood products and have cat donors available. Blood products can be difficult to source but are vital for treating many conditions. For these reasons our blood bank is exclusively for inpatient use.

  9. Facilities OXYGEN THERAPY Oxygen is pumped to all clinical areas of the hospital meaning we are ready for emergencies when they present. Our equipment also includes state-of-the-art mechanical ventilators for patients who need supportive breathing while admitted in pet intensive care. The patients require continuous monitoring by highly trained veterinarians and nurses.
