    Description

    Hello!

    Do you have a pet therapy animal you would like to share with a hospice patient?

    we are currently looking for volunteers who also have a pet therapy animal to take to visit patients. Many of our population have had to give up a beloved pet to go into a facility, or they can no longer care for a pet. They still love and miss them. What better way to brighten their days than with some puppy kisses?

    If you own a pet therapy animal, and would like to make the day of a terminally ill patient, then let's talk!

    To be considered for the volunteer postion:

    • fill out an application
    • consent to a background check
    • take and pass a drug and TB test
    • take the on line Relias courses to help prepair for your new journey
    • meet for an orientation
    • make a copy of your pet's vaccine record and pet therapy papers.
