Pets As Therapy
Bringing joy and comfort to our patients, our team of PAT dogs and their owners visit both the wards and some outpatient areas.
All our dogs have passed their temperament test and have received their certificate from Pets As Therapy – this must be achieved before the owner applies for volunteering. If you have a dog you think may be suitable, please ensure your dog completes all the requirements and is fully qualified through Pets As Therapy before applying to volunteer. You’ll find all the information you need on the Pets as Therapy website (opens in a new tab). We are always looking for new dogs to join our team as the PAT dogs are very popular and much in demand!
