Turn off the lights for veterinary clients

This tip will help keep the environment quiet for clients during a euthanasia.

We turn off lights in the hallway behind exam rooms when we perform a euthanasia. It reminds us to quiet down so we don't disturb clients during this emotional appointment. It works really well. We turn the lights back on after they leave.
