Homewood Animal Hospital continues to remain on high alert due to COVID-19. We have been fortunate to be able to remain open and serve our clients and patients during these trying times. We have and will continue to implement several safety precautions to help protect our clients and our staff. Right now, our primary concern is for human health. Experts have not shown there to be immediate concern about transmission to or from animals. Multiple international health organizations have indicated that pets and other domestic animals are not considered at risk for contracting COVID-19. As always, animal owners should continue to include pets and other animals in their emergency preparedness planning, including keeping a two-week supply of food and medications on hand.
Currently:
⦁ At this time, we are still providing curbside service to limit physical interactions between clients and our staff. Our exam rooms are too small to maintain proper distancing to keep
clients and staff safe at this time. This means you call when you arrive and we will come to
your car to collect your pet and a doctor will call you to discuss findings and treatment
options. We have been fortunate that our Doctors are in the process of getting vaccinated. Once our staff has had an opportunity to be vaccinated we will begin to let our clients back in with some restrictions. We appreciate everyone's patience and understanding during these unprecedented times!
⦁ We are staying informed about the latest COVID-19 numbers in our area and the safety
measures that need to be in place including social distancing, masks, hand washing, etc.
⦁ We are also offering telemedicine with online consultations to determine if your pet needs to
be seen or if the ailment can be treated at home.
⦁ Frequent hand washing between appointments with soap and water. Along with wiping down
exam room surfaces with disinfectants between every appointment.
⦁ If you have any of the following symptoms - coughing, fever, respiratory illness, etc. please
avoid bringing your pet into the hospital until you are symptom free. If your pet is sick and
needs immediate attention you may schedule a drop-off appointment.
⦁ Please know your pets are our priority and they will be getting immense snuggles and support
during the exam even if you are unable to be present with them. We pride ourselves on trying
to make the animals experience as fear free as possible.
