A Common Sense Approach to Exceptional Care!
March 17, 2020
To Our Wonderful Clients,
We at Foland Veterinary Services are monitoring the COVID-19 pandemic closely. Our priority is the safety and care of our patients, our clients, and our employees. We will continue to do everything we can to provide the best care possible while keeping everyone as healthy and safe as possible. Things are rapidly changing day by day, but as of right now FVS is open for normal business hours – Monday through Saturday. Feel free to visit www.folandvet.com for our hours of business.
We want to assure you that we are vigilant about following the CDC guidelines and ensuring that we are taking extra sanitizing procedures, etc. We have been using an accelerated hydrogen peroxide disinfectant (Rescue) which has been proven to kill enveloped viral pathogens such as COVID-19. We are aware that the best approach is to try to minimize the risk of exposure as much as possible. We are also practicing social distancing in the lobby, and exam rooms. This means there will be no hand shaking, and owners will be asked to keep a distance during exams as recommended by the CDC. We are going to be scheduling our routine wellness visits 3 weeks out. We will be seeing patients that are sick or injured during this time. We may be reducing our staff for their own protection so appointment times might be limited. Medication refills can be called in for us to prepare ahead of time and then call once you arrive at the office. Payment may be taken over the phone and staff will bring out the medications. This will be a temporary service available. We do have a online home delivery service for medications, and foods, visit our website www.folandvet.com and click on myvetstoreonline.com. Most medications are available, but not all of them are.
We are requesting that if you or anyone in your household is feeling ill, that you please get in touch with our office about options of rescheduling your pet’s appointment.
Also, just a reminder- there is no current evidence that you can get Coronavirus (COVID-19) from your sick dogs or cats. If you are feeling ill reduce exposure to your pet, contact with pet and other family members then petting or hugging your pet. People may be exposed via physical contact with pets fur.
Please be patient with us during this time of ever-changing guidelines, recommendations, and uncertainties. We do welcome any phone calls. We will keep you all updated on any changes as they come. As always, we appreciate our clients for your support, patience, and understanding.
