Start with the patient at the reception window. Check face shape, eyes, teeth, voice, posture, and any movement before you take another action.

Appearance anomalies are dangerous because they tempt players to rush. If the window view already fails, the safest move is to reject before spending time on another layer.

Common mistakes

Skipping this check because the patient looks normal on another layer. Some Animal Hospital anomalies only reveal themselves through one specific view.

Waiting too long after the sign appears. Once a required check fails, close the shutters instead of trying to rescue the admission.
