Hospital Safety Update
How Animal Advocate Is Keeping Safety First
Here at Animal Advocate Pet Hospital, we believe in keeping the balance between pet care, client care, and self-care. the care and wellbeing of your pets is certainly our priority. 2020 was unprecedented and those that thrived needed to be quick and agile in order to be safe. We are proud to announce all the steps we have taken to keep safety first.
Pets and Clients:
While we do keep our doors locked during these times, we are far from closed! This has allowed us to take control over any foot traffic in our lobbies and rooms. Ringing our doorbell is a quick and efficient way to alert us if you find yourself right outside of our front door. We do not allow entry with a face mask or covering…for you of course, not your pet 😊.
To help keep our hospital up and running to assist our clients, we have taken special measures in addition to the protocols we already had in place from our start.
-Right at our front desk and inside each room are hand sanitizing dispensers for use at any time.
-You can also look for our air purifiers located in our lobby as well as in each room.
-While we do have dividers in our lobby to keep families separate, we always aim to get you and your pet into a designated exam room straight away. This helps minimize any contact time spent in our common area.
-Speaking of exam rooms, did you know that each of our rooms are over 10 feet across?? This creates the above average social distance situation as clients get to have their own space while letting us know why they are in for a visit. Due to COVID-19 safety precautions, your pet’s physical exams are now taking place in the back of our hospital, but they get to come right back to your room as soon as it’s over. For the duration of your visit, this space is exclusively yours from start to finish…even check out!
-All rooms and public areas are sanitized between clients.
-For clients who prefer not to enter the building, we have increased our ability to offer curbside exams for new clients as well as exam drop off slots for our existing clients. We are blessed to have FREE parking right behind our facility so pulling into our lot offers the convenience of never leaving your car. Simply give us a call at your designated exam time and one of our technicians will gather all information needed for your pet’s exam before coming out to pick them up. This is also a convenient way to pick up prescriptions as well.

Hospital Staff:
We are extra excited to report that our hospital was also recently granted the opportunity for our staff to have access to the Covid-19 vaccination as an additional way to further protect ourselves as we serve the community as essential workers. Being one of the first to have this opportunity was not luck. It came from the hard work and dedication of our practice owners to be able to put the hospital in the forefront. We at least got the option to protect ourselves if we so chose. Its just another way that we can prove and say that we are keeping the balance and keeping safety first at Animal Advocate Pet Hospital.
