0 Favorites Pet Therapy Volunteers for Hospice Patient Visits ORGANIZATION: Radiant Hospice
Radiant Hospice is looking for pet therapy dogs and their wonderful owners to join our team. Pets must be certified as a pet therapy animal through the Delta Society, Therapy Dogs International, PAWS, Lend a Paw Program or any organization of this caliber who tests and certifies animals for pet therapy. You will be asked to provide proof that your pet has liability insurance and is up to date on vaccinations.
Our patients are terminally ill and in their final stages of life. As a Hospice Volunteer you will be visiting patients in their own homes and at nursing facilities. You'll be assigned to a patient as close to your home as possible. Please join our team and make a difference!
Volunteer opportunities are located throughout San Diego County, with a one-time training session required at our Radiant Office.
We will work with your schedule.
Requirements:
- fill out all necessary paperwork for your file
- attend a training orientation
- complete a background check
- receive a TB test (unless you have had one in the past 6 months)
