FAIRFIELD, Calif., June 21, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Sunset Animal Hospital has achieved the highest level of veterinary excellence following a thorough evaluation by the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA). Sunset Animal Hospital earned AAHA accreditation after a rigorous review of the hospital’s practice protocols, medical equipment, facility, and client service.

Unlike human hospitals, not all animal hospitals are required to be accredited.

Accredited hospitals are the only hospitals that choose to be evaluated on approximately 900 quality standards that go above and beyond basic state regulations, ranging from patient care and pain management to staff training and advanced diagnostic services. AAHA-accredited hospitals are recognized among the finest in the industry, and are consistently at the forefront of advanced veterinary medicine. AAHA standards are continuously reviewed and updated to keep accredited practices on the cutting edge of veterinary excellence.

Pet owners look for AAHA-accredited hospitals because they value their pet’s health and trust the consistent, expert care provided by the entire health care team. At AAHA-accredited practices, pet owners can expect to receive the highest quality care from well-trained, professional veterinary teams.

Only the top small animal hospitals in the United States and Canada have achieved accreditation by the Association. To maintain accredited status, Sunset Animal Hospital must continue to be evaluated regularly by AAHA.

Sunset Animal Hospital was incorporated in October 1986. It has evolved into one of several major veterinary facilities in the Fairfield-Vacaville-Suisun area. The premise behind Sunset’s growth is understanding and anticipating client needs and satisfying these needs better than its competitors. Along with extended hours, this Fairfield veterinary clinic provides caring and high-quality service.

Sunset Animal Hospital’s commitment to clients is realized throughout its staff. In addition to the various technical responsibilities, each employee is also a client service representative to every client they encounter. The clinic promotes cross-training and continuing education through seminars and conferences.

“We are a small animal facility treating dogs, cats, birds, and exotics within a local radius of approximately twenty miles. We consider our clients as part of the team at Sunset, both in the treatment of their pet and in the marketing of our services,” says Robin Underwood, the front office manager of Sunset Animal Hospital.
