Providence ElderPlace_PACE is an innovative program of services for older adults. Providence ElderPlace helps older adults remain as healthy and independent as possible in the community for as long as possible.
Pet Therapy Team: Pet therapy teams provide comfort and unconditional love to our participants at our Columbia City PACE(Program for All Inclusive Care for the Elderly) Center. Teams must go through a certified training program such as Pet Partners or the Humane Society to ensure they will be successful in our environment.
Pet Therapy teams are needed any weekday except Monday between the hours of 10 am and 2 pm.
Consistent weekly, every other week or monthly visits would be ideal.
