Recently, two therapy dogs, Lilly Rose (French Bulldog) and Allie (Yellow Lab) visited the team in Maine Medical Center’s Coulombe Family Tower to brighten the days of our care team members.
These volunteer dogs undergo special training prior to visiting the hospital so they can be calm, caring visitors. Members of all departments have the opportunity to pause, pet the dogs, and receive a mood boost to power their day. These good dogs love the attention and receive plenty of treats for a job well done!
This #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth we want to remind everyone taking a break to care for your mental health is just as important as addressing your physical health!
