E N D
In 1994 a group of veterinarians from Brisbane established an emergency hospital at Bowen Hills to give first aid to sick pets so they did not have to be on call 24 hours a day. Advances in veterinary medicine over the next decade meant gradually more and more could be done for the sickest pets. The practice became constrained because its owners wanted a clinic to look after basic first aid, while the vets and nurses working there knew that more could be done with better resources and training.
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.
