Coronavirus lockdown announcement January 2021
Dear Clients,
Following the recent government announcement of a national lockdown and taking into account the guidance from the veterinary professional bodies, it will be necessary for Northwich Vets to implement some changes to comply with the new rules.
We are thankful that the government has recognised that Northwich Vets provide an important service to people and their pets and that they have allowed Northwich Vets to operate on a reduced level in order to maintain urgent and emergency treatment for animals under our care.
From Wednesday 6th January 2021 you may find that we need to cancel or postpone some appointments and procedures. Please have patience with our hardworking staff and we will endeavor to manage each situation appropriately.
Therefore, it is extremely important that no client brings a pet to the practice if they have any symptoms of coronavirus, if they have been instructed to isolate, or if they have been in contact with someone who has had a positive test. Please postpone your appointment and reorganise any appointments in this case.
We would like to reassure you that we are trying to remain as covid secure as possible and have taken various measures to reduce the opportunity to spread this virus.
Please join us in these measures when you visit. Wait in your vehicle and telephone to confirm your arrival. Please wear a face mask or equivalent when interacting with our staff.
Credit or Debit cards are the preferred form of payment for treatment.
I would like to say a huge thank you to my brilliant team of hardworking veterinary professionals, and an equally huge thank you to you, our fantastic and loyal clients for your support and cooperation and the patience that I am confident you will have with us as we endeavor to find the best way through these coming weeks.
Many Thanks,
Patrick and the team at Northwich Vets
