    Description

    Pet therapy teams needed to visit hospice patients

    AccentCare Hospice & Palliative Care of Maryland needs certified pet therapy teams to visit our patients living in their own homes and in nursing facilities throughout the greater Baltimore area and surrounding communities. Visits from pets and their human counterparts can lift hospice patients' spirits, be a calming presence, and make them smile at a time they need it most. If you're already a certified pet therapy team we want to hear from you! If you would like to be certified, check out petpartners.org or tdi-dog.org, then contact us after you have completed the certification process.
