Pet Therapy - Hospice Patient Visits
♡ SaveAbout this opportunity
We are looking for established, and/or new, Pet Therapy Teams, that have Bright & Beautiful, or Therapy Dogs International, certification, to join our pool of Hospice Volunteers, providing hospice patients, and/or their families, with extra attention when on our service.If you have a Pet Therapy Animal, I don't need to tell you the power that their visits have.We are looking for Teams who can visit weekly, or every-other-week, to patients under our care, mostly who are in a nursing facility and have long been without constant canine contact.I wish Hospice Volunteering onboarding was a snap, but it is a process... But really just for the human team member. If you are ready to go through the process, because you know the benefit that you can bring to others, whose days are limited, please reply to this post and I'll send you details about our onboarding process.
About Vitality Hospice and Palliative Care
Vitality Hospice and Palliative care is patient driven and clinician owned. The founder is a hospice and palliative care certified nurse practitioner who strives to promote care that enhances quality of life, helping patients enjoy each day. The organization is team driven and open to change as needed. As a volunteer for our organization your impact is not just on patient care but our culture, as you are an integral part of our team! We have 3 offices, servicing our communities: Langhorne, PA covers Bucks & Montgomery Counties in PA, Wall, NJ covers Middlesex, Monmouth and Ocean Counties in NJ, and Burlington, NJ covers Burlington, Camden, Gloucester and Mercer Counties in NJ. As a volunteer you will serve in the area that is comfortable for you to get to. Most volunteers serve the community that they are in, as that is where our patients are; the need to travel to any of the offices is rare.
