The Pet Project

Our facility has a "pet project" in place which integrates animals and plants into our living environment. We currently have cats, birds, and fish living within the facility. Dogs also perform personal visits with our residents on a regular basis. The purpose of this project is to improve the quality of life for our residents and to promote a more homelike environment. Visitors frequently bring in a resident's personal pet for a visit as well. We include areas that are pet-free for those bothered by allergies or who do not wish to participate.

All pets (residential and visiting) must have current shot records on file. If you bring in your pet for a visit, please be sure you bring shot records, a leash, and clean up after your pet.
