Urgently need volunteers in our community to make the most of end of life moments for our hospice patients. Visit patient with your certified pet. A heart-felt act of kindness that certainly makes a difference to the patient. Volunteers must be willing to 1) become a certified animal handler through Pet Partners (https://petpartners.org/volunteer/become-a-handler/) and then 2) go through brief training with Kindred Hospice.
