The municipal veterinarian provides basic veterinary care on weekdays during office hours and urgent veterinary care 24 hours a day.
Municipalities are required to provide basic veterinary services for other animals than livestock only in the case that the service is not otherwise available within the co-management area.
Veterinary services include health checks, diagnoses and treatment of illnesses, as well as the issuing of veterinary certificates. The services also include ensuring the health and welfare of animals, preventive health care and putting animals down, if necessary.
Basic veterinary services are available on weekdays during office hours and as urgent veterinary assistance for all domestic animals around the clock. The region's environmental health care provider can provide the services themselves or obtain them from a private veterinary service provider.
