Brightening Your Day One Pet at a Time

 

FMC Pet Therapy dog JakesThrough the stress of medical testing, recovering from surgery or worrying about the condition of a loved one, dogs are able to provide a much-needed diversion from a patient’s problems. They relieve agitation, anxiety, and stress in patients, and, quite simply, they bring smiles and joy to the hearts of many. Animals have a way of accepting without qualification. They don’t judge you. They don’t care how you look or what you say. They simply accept you the way you are.

Fairfield Medical Center’s Pet Therapy Program has been in existence for more than 15 years and now includes approximately 20 pet therapy teams in a variety of shapes and sizes.
