SEH Intensive Care Unit
The Intensive Care Unit at Clovelly Stables has a team of specialist veterinarians and qualified nurses who provided 24-hour care for critically-ill neonates adults and post-operative patients.
The ICU is run under the supervision and guidance of Dr Jane Axon, a registered specialist in Equine Medicine. Jane with the assistance of medicine specialist Dr Catherine Russell and Dr Niamh Collins provide the veterinary expertise to care for local horses as well as referrals from all over New South Wales and southern Queensland. These veterinarians participate in regular international and local seminars, research projects and the teaching of local and international interns and veterinarians. Through this regular contact with veterinary specialists in Australia and overseas we ensure the latest diagnostic procedures and treatments are available for the patients at the Clovelly Intensive Care Unit.
A team of local and international nurses provide the patients with the best possible nursing care. This service is one of the greatest assets of the ICU and ensures that patients are provided with 24-hour expert care and comfort. The nurses are also leaders in their field and provide training for local and international students.
Each year SEH offers a 6-month internship in Equine Emergency and Critical care. Aproximately 1000 patients are seen annually, comprising of 280 neonatal medicine, 160 adult medicine and 560 adult and neonatal post surgical cases. This provides the intern with the background training and expertise to continue into a residency training program or private practice.
