In-Patient care at Gilabbey
Our highest priority at Gilabbey Veterinary Hospital is the welfare of the patients under our care, and nowhere is our commitment to excellence more evident than in the care of our in-patients.
Our hospital is staffed by veterinary surgeons and qualified veterinary nurses 365 days a year. The on-duty vets and nurses are ably supported by student nurses and animal care assistants.
Owners are often particularly concerned with their pet’s care at nights and weekends. At Gilabbey, vets and nurses are on-call throughout these periods providing the necessary monitoring and treatment of all patients that need to be hospitalized. Whatever the nature of a hospitalized patient’s problem, the vet in charge of the case can, if the need arises, contact one of our specialist vets.
Gilabbey has a great team of registered veterinary nurses. They are experience in the critical care and nursing of medical and surgical patients.
Gilabbey has a large dog ward with walk in kennels, a cat ward and isolation area, and a recovery ward. Spacious walk-in kennels enable large dogs and giant breeds such as St.Bernards to be comfortably hospitalized.
The dedicated cat ward ensures all feline patients are as stress-free as possible and our isolation area minimises the risk of spread of contagious diseases to other in-patients. Fluid pumps are provided in each ward to ensure animals on intravenous fluids receive accurate and well regulated therapy.
Should your pet need to be hospitalized at Gilabbey, you can have peace of mind, knowing that we are committed to providing the highest levels of care for our patients.
