The COVID-19 pandemic comes with many challenges including for veterinary hospitals, their clients and their staff. I will continue to accept relief shifts in hospitals that adhere to the AVMA/CDC guidelines including no direct client contact other than for euthanasias (those clients will need to wear masks), all staff members wearing masks, and frequent cleaning of hands, surfaces, and commonly used equipment. I will bring my own mask and help keep your hospital staff and clients safe! I will not enforce my 30-day cancellation policy if a hospital has to close for reasons related to COVID. Furthermore, I will not be able to work if a staff member is a COVID suspect or tested positive for COVID within the last 7 days prior to my scheduled shift unless the remaining staff members have tested negative. Please kindly let me know asap if this is the case.
