We Help Our Butterflies To Fly
We are thrilled when our residents take flight, and respond to (and interact with) their animal friends. So we make sure we create the environment for them to have that success.

The Amazing Effects Of Animals
There is something about being close to animals that seems to change humans...for the better. In fact, there has been a study that concluded that seniors who have pets go to the doctor's less often than those who don't have a pet.
We integrate a variety of animals into the lives of our residents on a daily basis. Among the benefits, we feel the critters have a calming effect and add joy to the daily routine. It shows in the many smiles.
Benefits To Our Residents
By integrating contact with animals into our care plans, we expose our residents to a variety of possible benefits. Here are some of the advantages that come from our experience and some that are mentioned on the PawsAndHearts.org website.
- Lessens emotional pain and loneliness.
- Seems to diminish some physical pain.
- Motivates action, activity and recovery .
- Reduces boredom and depression.
