Hospitalization Services for Around-the-Clock Care
We understand that sometimes your pet needs a little extra care and monitoring. At CARE, our dedicated hospitalization services provide a safe and comfortable environment for pets recovering from surgery, illness, or injury.
When is Hospitalization Necessary?
There are several situations where hospitalization might be the best option for your pet's well-being.
- Post-surgical recovery: After a surgical procedure, hospitalization allows for close monitoring of your pet's vital signs, pain management, and recovery progress.
- Intensive care: For pets requiring more extensive care, such as those with severe illness, injury, or chronic conditions, our Intensive Care Unit (ICU) team provides constant monitoring, specialized treatment, and dedicated support.
- Management of complex medical conditions: Certain medical conditions require ongoing monitoring and precise adjustments to medication or treatment plans. Hospitalization allows for this level of care and ensures your pet's needs are met.
