Banner Hospice serves patients and families who live in their home, or in the place they have come to know as home, such as an assisted living center or group home.
Hospice allows people who are near the end of life to live as comfortably and fully as possible while dying.
Our interdisciplinary team includes nurses, social workers, chaplains, and very importantly VOLUNTEERS!
Many of our patients love animals or have problems communicating verbally, and find much comfort through the presence of a trained therapy dog.
Most of our therapy teams are certified through ATD or Pet Partners.
Please contact us if you would like to sign up as a Hospice volunteer with your certified therapy dog!
Thank you.
