Our Policies During the National State of Emergency Due to the Spread of COVID-19
January 22, 2022 COVID-19 UPDATE
Dear Green Valley Pet Families,
As news of the coronavirus (COVID-19) in our community continues to develop and cases continue to increase, we are monitoring the situation closely. We are sending our thoughts to all of you during this most difficult time. Our main concern is for the health of our staff, clients and patients.
Since 2020 we have all experienced unprecedented changes in our lives both personally and professionally as a result of the COVID pandemic. We are seeing an unprecedented increase in patients both in private practice and at veterinary emergency facilities.
At times it has put a tremendous strain on many local veterinary clinics and ER facilities and their staff. Some of the increase in case load is due to community practices that have had to close or reduce their hours multiple times due to employee COVID outbreaks.
At Green Valley, we are all working very hard and doing our best to see every patient that needs to be seen during our open hours. We ask that if your pet is having any symptoms that concern you please call for an appointment as soon as possible rather than waiting. If the symptoms develop into a health crisis that we are not equipped to handle, it may be very difficult to find a 24-hour emergency facility that is able to see your pet due to being overwhelmed secondary to staff shortages caused by Covid.
We kindly ask for your understanding if you have a puppy, kitten or healthy adult that is due for vaccines, you may have a delay in getting an appointment. Primary care visits and procedures (vaccines, annual exams, spays/neuters) may be booked out several weeks due to high demand. If you are planning on boarding your pet in the future, please call at least one-two months before to schedule any needed vaccinations for boarding so you pet is fully protected.
If you have a scheduled appointment and cannot make it, please call us to cancel so that another patient can receive care.
At this time, our hospital remains operating under regular business hours with curbside care and in-person visits. It is the decision of our clients whether they would like to accompany their pet inside or remain in their vehicle.
While the CDC and other health authorities have indicated that dogs, cats, and other domestic pets are not considered at risk for contracting COVID-19, we are taking extra precautions to ensure the health and safety of humans within our facility – notably our clients and staff.
Hospital Cleaning Protocol & Staff Illness
Our hospital continues to observe the CDC’s recommendations on disease prevention, handwashing and cleaning protocols, as well as guidance on managing staff members who are displaying flu-like symptoms and/or have tested positive for COVID-19.
Updated COVID-19 Policies
In order to best serve our patients and the people who love them while keeping our team members safe, we have updated some of our policies and are taking the following steps to assure you of our continued commitment to you and your pet:
· If you have any symptoms of COVID-19, or have been exposed to anyone with symptoms, please refrain from coming to the practice. Call us to make special arrangements to meet your pet’s needs.
· As is the case with any public place or facility outside your home, your presence at GVVH might expose you or others to the Coronavirus.
· If you prefer it or are unable to come in with your pet, we will continue to provide curbside service. Call us when you arrive, and we will have you speak to a Technician or Assistant to go over the appointment and any concerns you may have. We will then have them meet you to transfer your pet. If curbside, please plan to stay in the parking lot until your pet’s appointment is over.
· Facemasks are at the discretion of our clients.
· Please limit the number of clients to two per appointment (Exemption for Euthanasia appointments)
· Please use hand sanitizers provided
Thank you for your patience, understanding and your willingness to plan ahead during this time.
If You Have an Afterhours Emergency
Please understand our local Emergency Hospitals are also struggling with the current COVID demands and have, at times, reached capacity or may have 8+ hour wait times as they triage patients so those that are critically ill are seen first.
