The attending veterinarian of the inpatient department determines, based on the type of illness and the species of the animal, which section the patient should be admitted to and what kind of diet it should receive. For all animals being hospitalized, a health screening (kit testing) is conducted to prevent the transmission of contagious diseases. If the veterinarian suspects a risk of infection for the hospitalized patient, they may decide to administer medications such as immune boosters, vaccines, or antiparasitic treatments.
Hospitalized patients at our facility, as long as they are not restricted or physically unable to walk, are taken out to the hospital yard two to three times a day for walks and fresh air. They typically urinate and defecate during these outings.
The ventilation system in this section is highly efficient, and the temperature is closely monitored and checked daily. If a specific patient requires an adjustment in temperature (either an increase or decrease), individual measures are taken accordingly.
One of the unique features of this department—designed and developed by the hospital’s veterinarians—is the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), which was created out of the need to stabilize the physiological conditions of critical patients. This unit provides the ability to regulate temperature, humidity, oxygen levels, and inhaled medication for each patient. Typically, all surgical patients are transferred to this unit before they regain full consciousness.
