Pet Therapy
21 February 2017
Our home is a pet friendly environment. The bi-weekly Pet Therapy visits bring joy and affection to our residents, who appreciate being able to touch and cuddle a friendly animal. This resident looks extremely comfortable and brightened up in the presence of 'Muffin'.
Recent studies show that visiting animals play a valuable role in a care setting as it can have positive effects on those living with dementia by reducing feelings of anxiety and improving social interaction.
Looking forward to their next visit!
