SUMMARY: Jefferson Animal Hospital in Okolona, Kentucky, is expanding its facility and services, doubling in size to include an ICU, dual surgery suites, and a pet blood bank donation center. Founded in 1978 by Dr. Patricia Kennedy, the hospital evolved from a three-bedroom house to a 24/7 state-of-the-art veterinary center, the first in Kentucky to offer round-the-clock care. Despite early challenges as a female vet, Dr. Kennedy persevered, creating a vital resource for pets, including helping police dogs and abuse cases. The expansion aims to enhance care for family pets and the community, with support from local officials and longtime staff.
