Anesthesia and CPR – Forestville Crossing

Client Name
Where you can be reached during the day
Would you like for us to text or call?
I understand that Rolesville Veterinary Hospital at Forestville Crossing is not staffed overnight and I accept any risks incurred by leaving my animal overnight unattended. I understand that I have the option to transport my animal to an overnight/24-hour facility if I so desire.
I understand a written estimate for these services will be made available upon my request and that I will provide a 50% deposit for the estimated fees.
In an effort to maintain a flea-free hospital, if fleas are found on my pet upon admittance to Rolesville Veterinary Hospital at Forestville Crossing, I agree to treatment with an appropriate oral or topical flea treatment to prevent spread of those parasite to other hospitalized patients. I understand I will be charged for this treatment.
I understand that Rolesville Veterinary Hospital at Forestville Crossing is not responsible for personal belongings that are left with your pet. We do provide towels and blankets in the cages where all patients are kept.
Preanesthetic Blood Testing
It is important to understand that a preanesthetic profile does not guarantee the absence of anesthetic complications. It may, however, greatly reduce the risk of complications as well as identify medical conditions that could require medical treatment in the future. Our greatest concern is the well being of your pet. We will perform a physical examination before administering anesthesia. However, disorders of the liver, kidneys or blood, are not detected unless blood testing is done. Abnormalities of any of these may increase anesthetic risk. For these reasons we highly recommend pre-anesthetic blood screens.
While I accept that all procedures will be performed to the best of the abilities of the hospital's staff, I understand that no guarantee has been made regarding the results that may be achieved. I agree to assume financial responsibility and provide payment at the time that services are rendered.

I acknowledge that I have the opportunity to discuss any questions or concerns about these risks with the attending veterinarian prior to the procedure(s) being performed.

General Information on CPR

Consent/Decline Directive for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Release of Legal Liability

Should, based on the medical judgement of an Animal Diagnostic Veterinarian, my pet require cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) including cardiac compression, positive pressure respiration, emergency drugs, or other heroic interventions, I request or decline that the doctor(s) at Rolesville Veterinary Hospital at Forestville Crossing pursue such medical care as indicated below.
REQUEST CPR
Request for CPR: Having requested such emergency procedures, I agree to be held responsible for a minimum resuscitation fee of $190.00 to pay for the services performed while staff members pursue treatment and try to reach me for further directions. Regardless of my pet's survival, I agree to pay this fee in addition to the other fees already identified by the practice and agreed upon by me. I agree that if the Rolesville Veterinary Hospital at Forestville Crossing staff is unable to reach me within 15 minutes after the initiation of CPR procedures, and after exercising reasonable medical judgement, a veterinarian determines that there appears to be virtually no hope for medical success, the future CPR procedures will cease. I have been informed by Rolesville Veterinary Hospital at Forestville Crossing and understand that despite the best efforts of the veterinarian and staff at Rolesville Veterinary Hospital at Forestville Crossing, CPR may not save my pet's life. I also understand that even the most successful CPR that restores my pet's life may not allow my pet to regain his/her normal mental and physical health, and thus, may leave him/her as an invalid.
DECLINE CPR
DO NOT RESUSCITATE MY PET. I have read the above information and release. I agree to the above terms and request that NO CPR BE PERFORMED ON MY PET.
