In-patient Care
During normal practice opening hours
Our staff will provide appropriate and adequate in-patient care for your pet, as decided and instructed by the veterinary surgeon on duty. This care includes housing in a comfortable environment, and monitoring and treatment in line with your pet's condition, by people with the right level of knowledge and expertise.
During normal practice opening hours, a member of staff will be present on the practice site at all times and will be available to provide in-patient care to your pet.
Outside normal practice opening hours
If such a centre is available, patients that need overnight care and hospitalisation will be transferred, by either the practice or the owner, to a dedicated out-of-hours provider.
If such a centre is not available, the veterinary surgeon will tell you how your pet will be cared for continuously. This may include your pet being hospitalised without continuous supervision. The veterinary surgeon will discuss the available options with you, including how often in-patient checks will be made.
Our out-of-hours provider is Medivet 24 Hour Dearne Valley.
