Subcutaneous injection

Le service d’injection sous-cutanée à domicile pour votre animal est conçu pour faciliter  l’administration de traitements nécessitant une injection sous la peau de l’animal, généralement  pour des soins à long terme comme les traitements pour le diabète, les insuffisances rénales, ou  d’autres conditions médicales. Ce service est effectué dans le confort de votre maison,  permettant ainsi à l’animal de recevoir ses soins dans un environnement moins stressant. Voici  une explication détaillée de ce service, des conditions nécessaires et des avantages pour vous  et votre compagnon.

The subcutaneous injection involves administering a medication or fluid (typically in cases of dehydration or for certain medical treatments) directly under the pet's skin. The at-home service includes: 

  1. Preparation and verification : 

– The professional ensures that the medication or fluids to be administered are in good condition and ready to be used (correct dosage, temperature, etc.). 

– The professional also checks that the equipment (syringes, needles, etc.) is clean and in good condition. 

  1. Administration of the injection : 

– The professional performs the subcutaneous injection by selecting the appropriate injection site, usually at the neck or along the pet's back, where the skin is more pliable and easier to grasp. 

– The injection is performed gently, with expert handling to reduce the pet's stress and prevent any pain or injury. 

  1. Checking the animal's reaction : 

– After the injection, the professional ensures that the animal does not show any immediate adverse reactions, such as inflammation or pain at the injection site. 

  1. Post-injection advice : 

– The professional may provide advice on signs to watch for after the injection and the next steps of the treatment. 

– Explanations regarding the maintenance of equipment (syringes, needles) and recommendations for future injections. 

Necessary conditions 

  • Matériel fourni par le client : Le client doit fournir le médicament ou les fluides  nécessaires au traitement, ainsi que les seringues et aiguilles adaptées à l’injection. • Animal manipulable : En cas de difficulté, le propriétaire pourra être conseillé sur la  manière de calmer l’animal pendant l’injection. 

• Prescription vétérinaire : Le traitement doit être prescrit par un vétérinaire. Ce service  ne remplace pas une consultation vétérinaire, mais permet simplement d’administrer un  traitement prescrit à domicile.

Benefits 

  1. Practicality and comfort : 

– The subcutaneous injection is performed at home, which avoids the stress of transporting the animal to the veterinary clinic. This allows the animal to stay in a familiar and calm environment.

– The owner does not have to worry about administering the injection themselves, especially if the animal is difficult to handle or if the owner is not comfortable with this procedure. 

  1. Time-saving : 

– You don't have to go to the veterinarian or manage trips for each injection. The professional comes directly to your home at a time that works for you. 

– The service is quick and efficient, allowing you to adhere to the treatment schedule without disrupting your daily routine. 

  1. Professional care : 

– The injections are performed by a qualified professional, ensuring the correct and safe administration of the medication or fluids. 

– Administration errors (incorrect dosage, improper injection technique) are avoided, ensuring the effectiveness of the treatment. 

  1. Reduction of the animal's stress : 

– Performing the injection at home allows the animal to be more relaxed, as it is not confronted with a clinical environment that can be stressful. – The professional is experienced in handling animals in a calm and reassuring manner, thereby minimizing anxiety. 

  1. Follow-up and personalized advice : 

– The professional can monitor the animal's condition after the injection and provide advice on care to be given between injections. 

– It is also possible to receive recommendations on diet, hydration, or adjustments to the treatments if necessary. 

  1. Savings on frequent trips : 

– If the animal requires regular injections (such as for diabetes treatments, fluids for kidney failure, or certain medications), this service significantly reduces the need for repeated visits to the veterinarian. 

Treatment frequency and follow-up 

The frequency of injections depends on the type of treatment prescribed. Some injections need to be administered daily, while others may be given at longer intervals. The professional will help you follow the treatment schedule to ensure the continued effectiveness of the care. 

 

En résumé, le service d’injection sous-cutanée à domicile offre une solution pratique,  sécuritaire et apaisante pour administrer des traitements médicaux à votre animal. Il combine  professionalism, gain de temps and réduction du stress pour votre compagnon, tout en  vous fournissant un accompagnement personnalisé pour garantir la bonne gestion du traitement  prescrit.
