Scope of First Aid Procedures
Actions Falling Under First Aid
The Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons offers guidance on first aid:
“Provided what is done, is done in order to save an animal’s life or to stop its pain or suffering and is done as an interim measure until a veterinary surgeon’s services can be obtained, it is unlikely that, in most cases, there will be subsequent argument that what has been done has gone beyond first aid.”
