Therapets provide four-legged therapy

Nov 13, 2023

As part of the health and wellbeing week, staff were welcomed to spend time with a number of therapets at University Hospital Wishaw.

The furry visitors were helping to put smiles on a number of hard-working staff members faces.

For some years now it has been recognised by healthcare experts, something we all knew: that pets are good for our health. We have a small team of therapet dogs that volunteer, along with their owners, to regularly visit and provide a little four-legged therapy and companionship to animal lovers who aren’t able to care for a pet full-time.
