Signal euthanasias at your veterinary practice

Article

When you work in a small hospital where laughter is the norm, you have to figure out creative ways to let employees know a euthanasia is taking place.

We needed a way for everybody in our hospital to know when a euthanasia was taking place. We have a very small hospital where laughter and banter carries into the exam rooms, so one of our technicians made heart-shaped signs to hang on the doors.

They always stay in the door pockets with the white side facing out, until we have a euthanasia or quality-of-life exam. The pink side reads, "Quiet please." When the pink side is facing out, every one is on alert to keep their voices hushed.
