I cannot thank the staff at ARH enough for the kindness and care they showed us and our dog. We were well informed of all scenarios on offer and, our dog was cared for beautifully. Thank you so much. I would not hesitate in recommending ARH.

Our services

We are open 24/7 to support our local referring veterinarians with advanced critical care services.

An overnight monitoring package is available for your stable patients while your practice is closed overnight to ensure they remain stable or to be there if they do deteriorate. These patients are then discharged from ARH back to you in the morning when you reopen to either continue their care or be discharged home. For further information regarding the packages available, please contact ARH Gosford directly on (02) 4323 3886.

When an external specialist (internal medicine, dermatology, cardiology) is required, we will work with both the client and their primary care vet to refer to a specialist that best meets their needs.All pets are referred back to their regular veterinarian for continued treatment and management of conditions. We are not a general practice and do not perform any routine duties such as vaccinations, heartworm injections, dental care or microchipping.

Our ECC team is headed up by criticalist Dr Natashia Evans and is highly trained to monitor and treat the most critically ill patients. They have access to state-of-the-art equipment, including invasive and non-invasive blood pressure monitoring, mechanical ventilator support and oxygen therapy, as well as the most up-to-date in-house blood testing machines for haematology, biochemistry, coagulation and blood-gas analysis.

Our team provides constant, close monitoring of all animals requiring critical care support and specialises in providing pain management, intravenous fluid resuscitation, blood transfusions, oxygen support and nutrition to patients. This dedicated care can often be the key factor in a pet’s survival. Our full team is recovery-trained and certified in CPR resuscitation.

You may never have thought about it, but just like humans, some sick pets need blood transfusions, too.

Some accidents and illnesses cause catastrophic blood loss and we need to supplement your pet’s own blood with a donation of blood from another animal.

These donations are often life-saving, and recipients go on to make a full recovery thanks to the blood donation.

Not all dogs are appropriate for blood donations, and we need to ensure the health of the donor is not compromised by participating.

All hospitalised patients are monitored continuously throughout their stay. There are highly experienced ECC veterinarians and nurses on duty at all times. Your companion stays in a comfortable, clean bed visible to all of our staff and is monitored around the clock.

We discourage toys and blankets from home – with the high amount of traffic at our facility, it’s difficult to guarantee they will return home.

Our consultation rooms are designed to be a simple, soothing environment. They are used for the initial assessment of less critical patients and discussion with owners prior to admitting animals for treatment. More critical cases will be transferred directly to the treatment area for nursing supervision upon arrival.

Blood Donor Program

You may not have ever thought about it, but just like humans, some sick pets need blood transfusions to survive. Accidents and illnesses such as trauma, rat bait toxicity, immune disorders, cancer, and snake bites can cause life-threatening blood loss. In these cases, a single blood donation can save up to three critically ill animals.

 

If your pet is suitable, they can be added to our blood donor register and help save lives, they will also receive:

  • A $100 Petbarn voucher
  • A FREE full physical exam with each donation
  • A FREE blood test with each donation

All donor candidates undergo a thorough but non-invasive health screening to ensure they are healthy and won’t be adversely affected by giving blood. In fact, for many pets, this may be the most comprehensive health assessment they’ve ever had, giving you peace of mind while they help others.

Donations are spaced at least every three months. During the process, your pet will receive a light anaesthetic and be placed on IV fluids to ensure a smooth and safe recovery. The whole process takes less than 15 minutes!

  • Be between 1-8 years old
  • Weigh more than 25kg
