Info about Hospice of the Valley

The Pet Companion Program at Hospice of the Valley is a complimentary service offered to our patients to help them feel more at ease. It consists of vaccinated, well-trained and behaved dogs that are available to visit patients in their homes and skilled nursing and residential care facilities. Pet Companion dogs, which have completed the American Kennel Club (AKC®) Canine Good Citizen Program, are able to cope with whatever is going on around them and their visits enhance a patient’s day. Sometimes a dog can act as a conduit to disseminate information or assess how a patient is feeling on a particular day; and at times patients feel more comfortable telling a dog how they are feeling—not remembering a handler is in a room. Dogs are fluffy, comforting, warm, non-judgmental, and offer a calming presence. Hospice of the Valley is able to offer this program to patients because of generous volunteers and donors. 100% of the Pet Companion program funding is derived through fund raising and $8,000.00 is needed to keep the program up and running for a year.
