All ceiling and wall surfaces of the facility are either bright white or stainless steel and can be pressure washed with disinfectants. All light fixtures are completely sealed and work on a back-up generator system. As does all necessary emergency equipment. All footing is bacteria resistant tongue and groove rubber tiles which helps to ease some of the discomfort of our laminitic cases and also aids in helping us maintain a clean environment. All stalls are video monitored. All stalls are wainscoted with compression foam and stainless steel to avoid injuries. Each stall has frosted skylights at ceiling level which allows for bright light without causing the frustrations that come from seeing outside. The stall fronts are enclosed with white steel mesh grids and sliding doors allowing for complete observation from our staff. The clinic has central air conditioning and heating which allows for the comfort control of our patients. An overhead rail system runs from the surgical suite across the aisle to a recovery stall allowing the use of a sling to move a horse from a horse trailer or van if necessary or from surgery to recovery when required. The main portion of the hospital contains five intensive care stalls, a surgical suite, a treatment and standing surgery area, radiology, laboratory, pharmacy, a kitchen with laundry, reception area and central oxygen. At the rear of the building is located an isolation stall for contagious/infectious diseases and two lay up stalls all of which are serviced by a separate entrance. The hospital is situated in a secluded gently wooded spot away from the commotion of traffic and noises that adds unneeded stress to the recuperating patient, thus the name... We hope you enjoy our tour and will think of us should the need arise. And please remember... While Laminitis is our primary specialty, we also specialize in Sports injuries, catastrophic lower limb trauma, amputation and prosthetics. |
