About this Opportunity

Provide a health dose of joy where it's needed most by getting certified to visit patients with your well-mannered dog! "Unleash" love on patients, families and staff by visiting one or more of our numerous hospitals and medical offices throughout Central Florida. Enhance patient experience by offering emotional support and comfort through the healing process. Pet therapy has been shown to reduce loneliness, blood pressure, anxiety/stress, and pain.

To apply, you'll need to obtain certification from "Alliance of Therapy Dogs." After this is completed, you'll find the AdventHealth Volunteer Application process on our website: AdventHealth Central Florida Volunteer Services. Questions? [email protected] or call 407-543-4047.
