Paws 4 Healing/Pet Partners®

Thanks to a partnership with Paws 4 Healing, Inc. in partnership with Pet Partners®, Sierra View is able to offer both animal-assisted therapy and animal-assisted activities to our patients. Not only do therapy animals provide patients a fun diversion from the hospital routine, but studies have shown that pet therapy can also be beneficial to the healing process. Visits with these animals can help a patient relax, lower blood pressure, reduce feelings of loneliness or depression, improve balance and postural control, and much more.
