Pet Intensive Care Monitoring
At Gippsland Pet Emergency, we understand that some pets require more than routine care in times of crisis. For pets facing severe health challenges, our hospital offers intensive care with continuous monitoring to ensure they receive the highest level of attention and medical support.
What is Intensive Care Monitoring?
Intensive care monitoring is designed for pets with life-threatening conditions or those recovering from serious surgeries or injuries. Our state-of-the-art hospital is equipped with advanced technology and staffed by a skilled team of veterinarians and nurses dedicated to providing round-the-clock supervision. We monitor vital signs such as heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory function, and oxygen levels, ensuring that any changes in your pet’s condition are detected and addressed immediately.
Our intensive care unit (ICU) is ideal for pets suffering from:
- Trauma or severe injuries
- Post-surgical recovery, especially after complex procedures
- Respiratory distress or failure
- Organ failure or dysfunction
- Poisoning or toxic ingestion
- Severe infections or illnesses
- Critical Care Team
Our team of veterinary specialists, including critical care veterinarians, is available to manage the most serious cases. We use advanced diagnostic tools, including blood analysis and digital imaging, to make quick and informed decisions about your pet’s treatment plan. In addition, we can administer emergency treatments, such as oxygen therapy, intravenous fluids, pain management, and blood transfusions, as needed.
A Compassionate Approach to Care
We understand how frightening it is when your pet is critically ill. At Gippsland Pet Emergency, we are not only focused on providing expert medical care for your pet but also on supporting you through this difficult time. You can trust our dedicated team to give your pet the specialised care they need, and we’ll keep you informed every step of the way.
