Are you lucky enough to have a sweet dog that has already been certified as a therapy dog? We are looking for people with certified therapy dogs to make friendly visits to our hospice patients. At this point, we can only take dogs that have already been screened and certified by a credentialed dog trainer. All visiting dogs must be current with their vaccines. Dog owners will receive hospice volunteer orientation and training at a time and place convenient to you. Please contact our volunteer coordinator, Lori Watkins, for additional information. We are located in California.
Anyone making in-person visits must adhere to CDC guidelines.

Mission Statement
Continuum Care Hospice’s mission is to provide the terminally ill patient and their loved ones with the support and care they require to live their lives comfortably. Our goal is to provide physical, emotional, and spiritual comfort. We believe that Hospice care should be available to any and all persons with an illness for which there is no cure or for persons who elect not to attempt a cure, resulting in a limited life expectancy.
