Bethany Hospice and Palliative Care is looking for pet therapy volunteers in the city of Pittsburgh. A visit from a therapy animal may be just the right "medicine" a patient needs to make their day brighter, relieve stress, help with healing, and improve emotional well being!
Bethany Hospice serves a 30 mile radius from our Greentree office, but we are specifically looking for pet therapy animals and volunteers to visit our patients in the city facilities (Shadyside, Squirrel Hill, Oakland, etc.). Volunteers set their own visit times and days that fit their schedules, as well as the patients.
To learn more about our volunteering program, specifically pet therapy volunteers, please visit our website at https://www.bethanyhospice.com/programs/volunteer , call Adrienne at 412-921-2209, or email volunteer@bethanyhospice.com
We look forward to working with you!
