Description
Patient care volunteers with therapy dogs provide emotional support which enhances the comfort and quality of life for our patients and families/caregivers. See the patients smile as they have the opportunity to visit with a furry friend! Many of our patients had a dog at one time and miss that interaction!
Therapy dogs must have completed their training, be current with all their vaccinations, and owners will need to go through the volunteer training class.
Bring your best friend and come volunteer with Dove Hospice and see our patients smile!!
