    Description

    Hospice is not about dying but making every moment count. We have patients who no longer have their own pets and would love to be visited by yours. We do require that your animal is registered through a recognized pet therapy group. Come bring smiles to the faces of people who enjoy the company of animals

    All hospice volunteers are required to complete our hospice training program. This training is for you and not your pet and will cover multiple end of life topics and will assist you in understanding and working with hospice patients and their families. Training will be starting soon virtually or in person. Please contact us today
