Animals have an extraordinary ability to offer comfort, joy, and companionship. For hospice patients and their families, the presence of a well-trained therapy animal can bring moments of solace and emotional support. Licensed pet therapy providers and handlers of emotional support animals are uniquely positioned to give back by volunteering their services in hospice care.
If you and your animals are looking to provide Emotional Comfort and Connection, Foster Joy, and Compassionate Support, then look no further as you've found your volunteer match!
