Tidewell is looking for well behaved pets (dogs willing to undergo an evaluation) to visit our patients in our Hospice House, local nursing homes, and assisted living facilities. Days and times are generally flexible. If your pet is certified already, we do accept some other agency certifications. If not, we provide an evaluation through Bright & Beautiful Therapy Dogs.
Tidewell Hospice's mission is to provide the highest quality of care that embraces a comprehensive continuum of services for patients and families dealing with advanced illness
Description
Tidewell is an independent, not-for-profit organization offering a home-based, total support system for patients and families dealing with a life-limiting illness, serving more than 1100 patients a day in Sarasota, Manatee, Charlotte and DeSoto counties.
