The staff at Sandwich Veterinary Hospital will make every effort to prevent complications arising from your pet’s stay while in our care.
While it is very rare, there is a small risk that a pet may experience respiratory and/or cardiac arrest during their stay—most often in those with serious underlying medical conditions such as heart disease, organ dysfunction, cancer, or advanced age. For this reason, we require a CPR directive for all pets boarding with us to ensure we can act according to your wishes in the unlikely event of an emergency.
