Overnight Hospitalization
Our ultimate goal is to help every pet get well. Sick, injured, and recovering pets sometimes require ongoing monitoring and care from experienced veterinarians and veterinary technicians before they are able to safely return home. At Insight Veterinary Wellness Center, we provide complete care by offering overnight hospitalization to sick and injured pets and those recovering from surgery.
When Should a Pet Stay Overnight at the Hospital?
We recommend overnight hospitalization for pets on a case by case basis. We may recommend a hospital stay following a complicated surgical procedure, accident, or after the diagnosis of an illness. In the hospital, our veterinary professionals can continually observe your pet, provide supportive care, and administer treatment to help your pet remain in a stable condition and recover more quickly.

How Long Will Your Pet Need to Stay in the Hospital?
The length of a hospital stay depends on each pet’s condition and path to recovery. Pets are able to return home once their health stabilizes and they no longer require the type of supportive care, medical treatments, and when necessary, palliative care which can only be provided by a veterinary professional in a hospital setting.
Pets are always happier and more comfortable at home, so we do our best to help our pet patients recover and return home as quickly as possible. When your pet’s ready for discharge, we’ll provide you with everything you need to continue your pet’s care at home.
