Our Caring Paws therapy dogs spread joy throughout the hospital as they visit patients, visitors and team members. These trained, certified pups are scheduled throughout the week and during each two-hour visit they try to see as many people as possible. If patients don’t receive a visit but would like one, they can make the request using the interactive patient engagement platform on their TV. When our volunteers arrive, they check for new requests before starting their rounds.

A big thank you to our dedicated canine volunteers and their humans who give up their time to give us big smiles! Happy ! We hope you get some extra treats! 🐶 🐕 🐾

The joy was contagious when the children from Morton Plant’s Powell Child Care and Learning Center visited the Madonna Ptak Morton Plant Rehabilitation Center for a special Easter egg hunt. It was so much fun that even the Easter bunny and Oliver, one of the Caring Paws volunteers, paid a special visit.

Dozens of plastic eggs and a few special eggs were found. When the Easter baskets were full, the children returned to the learning center, leaving behind big smiles and special memories. 💛🐣🥚
