Authorization for Emergency Care
Should a medical emergency arise, while my pet is in the care of Howard County Animal Hospital, I authorize the medical staff to administer a tranquilizer or perform such emergency procedures as may be deemed necessary to stabilize my pet. I agree to pay, in full, for all necessary services rendered for and to my pet. I understand that emergency services that are beyond the scope of this practice may require a referral and/or transfer to the closest available full-service emergency vet center.
I have read these conditions for the care of my pet. I hereby authorize Howard County Animal Hospital to determine to execute any/all necessary care to ensure the best outcome for my pet. I understand that, due to the nature of medical emergencies, the best course(s) of action may not provide a guaranteed outcome.
