New
Out of Hours Arrangements
In February 2010 Prospect House will have provided Veterinary care to the
community for 25 years. This milestone will mark important changes in the
practice. Throughout this time we have had a Vet and nurse on call at nights and
weekends. This has often meant that our staff have worked on emergencies at
night and have then needed to work the following day. The provision of this out
of hours cover has become increasingly difficult with the new Working Hours
Directive, stating this way of working is no longer acceptable. We are
therefore delighted to announce that the company
“VETS NOW” will be providing an out of hours emergency service from
February 8th in North Wales. The company provides this service to
over 400 Vet surgeries across the UK . The service will be used by several
practices across North Wales and will be based at Prospect House. Veterinary
surgeons and nurses who specialise in small animal emergency care will be on
site at night and weekends for treatment and advice. Animals requiring hospitalisation will benefit from continual monitoring
and management. The
service will run from 7.00pm every week night and 2.30pm on Saturday. The only change to surgeries will be at weekends.
Saturday surgery will run 9-11.30am (appts available) Saturday afternoon,
Sunday and Bank holiday surgeries will no longer run. For
any advice or concerns at night or weekends continue to ring our normal number
and you will be seen at Prospect House. Pet Porter service which is run by one of our Veterinary Nurses can be
contacted and may be able to help with transport. We are also
pleased to announce a new service for 2010 with a dedicated surgeon working in Prospect House, 1-2 days a week. This will
mean animals needing referral for more advanced surgery may be able to have the
operation in our own surgery, backed up by all night care from VetsNow.
All these new services will greatly benefit the care of all our pets.
We endeavour to continue to improve our services at all times and would
like to take this opportunity to thank all our loyal clients over the years.
Kind Regards
The Prospect House Team
