Pet Therapy for those at the End of Life- Orange County

As a Providence at Home/ COMPASSUS you and your certified pet will provide support to patient's at the end of life. Pets have a longstanding history of providing faithful companionship and showing unconditional love to humans in their lives. They provide care and comfort, supportive listening, and symptom management. Pet therapy has positive effects such as: reduced anxiety and stress, increased feelings of relaxation, and an overall improved outlook on life. We serve both adults and children.

If you think your loving pet could provide comfort and interested in the steps to certify, please contact us for information.
