Visiting Nurse Foundation has partnered with Assured Hospice & Pet Peace of Mind® to "preserve the loving bond between seriously ill people and their pets." They teach hospices how to provide care assistance for their patients with pets. That is why we are teaming up with Assured Hospice, who has brought this partnership to Lewis County, to raise funds for hospice patients and their pets.
