ORGANIZATION: Cascade Health - Hospice

  • 1 person is interested

Cascade Hospice would like to add the availability of a certified therapy dog for the benefit of our patients and families. If you have a certified therapy dog and would like to offer their services at the bedside of our patients, we encourage you to apply as a Hospice Volunteer. These treasured pets would be visiting at the bedside of terminally ill patients, bringing an extra layer of comfort. Visits may take place in private homes, at care facilities or at the newly opened Pete Moore Hospice House. For more information, please check out: www.cascadehealth.org or contact Preeti Yonjon Feist at pfeist@cascadehealth.org.

Thank you!
