Clients bringing their pets in to Chase View Veterinary Clinic can now feel even more reassured. There is not only top class care for the animals but humans will also be in safe hands.

The clinic has just been kitted out with an AED, a portable defibrillator, which could be used to save a life if needed, although all the staff hope that it is one piece of equipment they will never use.

Partner Nick Hart told The Ross Gazette that he had seen a report of a AED given to a golf club and thought it was a great idea.
