Daytime Hospitalization
We’re here for you when you need us the most.
At Tell Tail Veterinary Urgent Care, we understand that some medical conditions require extended monitoring and care beyond a quick visit. Our daytime hospitalization services are designed to provide pets with the medical support they need while ensuring comfort and compassion during their stay. Whether your pet is recovering from surgery, suffering from a serious illness, or requires emergency treatment for toxicity, our experienced veterinary team is here to provide the best care possible.
What is Daytime Hospitalization?
Daytime hospitalization at Tell Tail Veterinary Urgent Care offers pets intensive care during our business hours. This service allows us to monitor your pet’s condition closely, administer medications, and provide supportive therapies. Once your pet is stable, they can often return home the same day, reducing the stress of overnight hospitalization while still receiving the care they need.
Key Services Included in Daytime Hospitalization:
- IV Fluids: Dehydration can result from various conditions, including vomiting, diarrhea, kidney disease, and more. Intravenous (IV) fluid therapy helps rehydrate your pet and restore their electrolyte balance. IV fluids are also essential in supporting pets undergoing surgery, suffering from illness, or recovering from trauma.
- Oxygen Support: Pets experiencing difficulty breathing, whether due to heart disease, respiratory issues, or pulmonary hypertension, may require oxygen therapy. We have advanced equipment to administer oxygen, ensuring your pet receives the necessary support to stabilize their condition and breathe more easily.
- Urinary Catheterization: In cases where pets are unable to urinate due to a urinary blockage or other urinary issues, we provide urinary catheterization to help relieve discomfort and prevent further complications. This is particularly important in conditions like urinary obstruction, which can be life-threatening if not addressed quickly.
- Gastric Decontamination and Activated Charcoal: Toxicity ingestion is a common reason for daytime hospitalization. Whether your pet has ingested THC (cannabis), harmful medications, poisonous plants, or dangerous substances like rat bait, we provide gastric decontamination to prevent toxins from being absorbed into the bloodstream. Administering activated charcoal helps bind the toxins, reducing the risk of further harm. Our team is highly skilled in treating toxin ingestion cases quickly and effectively.
- Post-Operative Care: After surgery, pets often require close monitoring to ensure a smooth recovery. Our team provides post-operative care, including pain management, wound monitoring, and IV fluids, to help your pet recover as comfortably as possible. We also monitor for potential complications such as infection or reactions to anesthesia, ensuring your pet’s safety during their recovery period.
- Glaucoma Treatment and Monitoring: Glaucoma is a painful eye condition that can lead to blindness if not treated promptly. At Tell Tail Veterinary Urgent Care, we offer glaucoma monitoring and treatment to help manage eye pressure and preserve your pet’s vision. This condition often requires ongoing care, and our team is equipped to provide the necessary treatment to keep your pet’s eyes healthy.
- Supportive Care for Various Conditions: Our daytime hospitalization services extend beyond the treatments listed above. Whether your pet is suffering from a chronic illness, or infection, or requires stabilization after an accident, we provide personalized care to meet their specific needs. With access to advanced diagnostics and a compassionate veterinary team, your pet is in good hands.
