A cat friendly animal hospital is a veterinary practice that has been certified by the American Association of Feline Practitioners (AAFP) as being especially well-suited for treating cats. This certification means that the hospital has met certain criteria and standards set by the AAFP, including having a cat-friendly environment, having staff trained in feline-friendly handling and care, and providing high-quality veterinary services for cats.
At Toro Park Animal Hospital, we understand that cats have unique needs and can be more sensitive to their surroundings. That's why we have taken the extra steps to become a certified cat friendly practice. Our hospital has a separate waiting area and exam room specifically for cats, as well as calming pheromones to help keep them relaxed during their visit.
*While Toro Park Animal Hospital is not a Fear-Free certified animal hospital, we are proud to have team members who hold Fear-Free certifications. This means that our staff members have undergone specialized training to create a calm and comfortable environment for pets during their visits.
A fear free animal hospital is a veterinary practice that has been certified by the Fear Free Pets organization. This certification means that the hospital has taken steps to reduce fear, anxiety, and stress in their patients. This is especially important for animals who may be nervous or scared during their visit to the vet.
At Toro Park Animal Hospital, we have implemented fear free techniques and protocols to help make our patients feel more comfortable during their visit. This includes using gentle handling techniques, providing calming pheromones, and using positive reinforcement to help create a more positive experience for our patients.
When it comes to the health and well-being of your furry family members, you want to ensure they receive the best possible care. That's why we’ve chosen to become accredited by the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA).
What is AAHA Accreditation?
AAHA is the only organization that accredits animal hospitals in the United States and Canada. This accreditation is voluntary and requires hospitals to meet over 900 standards of excellence in areas such as medical equipment, facilities, and quality of care. AAHA accredited hospitals are evaluated every three years to ensure they continue to meet these high standards.
Quality of Care
One of the main benefits of choosing an AAHA-accredited hospital is the high quality of care your pet will receive. Our animal hospital is held to the highest standards of veterinary medicine, and we are always striving to improve and provide the best possible care for your pet. This means that your pet will receive the most up-to-date and advanced treatments and procedures available.
Professional Staff
AAHA-accredited hospitals also have a team of highly trained and skilled professionals. From veterinarians to technicians, these individuals provide the best care for your pet. They are required to participate in continuing education to stay up to date on the latest advancements in veterinary medicine. This ensures that your pet is in the hands of knowledgeable and experienced professionals.
State-of-the-Art Facilities
AAHA-accredited hospitals must meet strict standards when it comes to their facilities and equipment. This means that your pet will receive care in a clean and well-maintained environment with the most advanced medical equipment available. This not only ensures the safety and comfort of your pet but also allows for more accurate and efficient diagnoses and treatments.
Comprehensive Services
Another benefit of choosing an AAHA-accredited hospital is the wide range of services we offer. Our animal hospital is equipped to handle everything from routine check-ups and vaccinations to complex surgeries and emergency care. This means that you can trust your pet's care to one hospital, rather than having to visit multiple facilities for different services.
Peace of Mind
Choosing an AAHA-accredited hospital for your pet's care also provides peace of mind for pet owners. Knowing that your pet is receiving the best possible care from a team of professionals can alleviate any worries or concerns you may have. Additionally, AAHA-accredited hospitals must adhere to strict guidelines for pain management, which means your pet will be as comfortable as possible during their visit.
Choosing a fear free, cat friendly, and AAHA accredited animal hospital can make a big difference in your pet's experience at the vet. By creating a calm and welcoming environment, we can help reduce stress and anxiety for both you and your pet. This can lead to a more positive and successful visit, as well as better overall health for your furry friend.
In addition, our certifications show our commitment to providing the best possible care for your pet. Our staff is trained in feline-friendly handling and care, and we use the latest techniques and technology to ensure the health and well-being of your pet.
