10.4.6.4.1. Surgery Performed, Holding Overnight

How to use the Hold Overnight tool.

Surgery was DONE TODAY but because of complications, the animal may remain in the clinic care overnight.

If you are holding the animal overnight and the surgery was done, then you should be looking at the animal from the Surgery screen of Patient Flow.

1. Complete all of your notes, drugs, and medical tags.
2. Mark Surgery Done.
3. Go to Action > Hold Overnight.

Once “Hold Overnight” button is selected, a new wellness appt will be made for tomorrow for this animal. If this animal needs to go under anesthesia again, or receive additional drugs, you can put them back on Patient Flow. If they do not, you can checkout the wellness appointment in checkout, adding any additional services done there.
