Here is the purpose of the project:
My idea is that this project will provide and train people to
provide, special services for the elderly, disabled and terminally ill, to help
them keep their pets at home when they can no longer look after them, will
foster their pets to be available for visits while the client is in a nursing home or in long
term rehab after illness or operations, and will act to help place the animal
upon the death of the client.This is a really important service because almost every agency available to people cannot provide basic care for companion and service animals. Families usually are not equipped to take on pets of family members leaving the pet owners with additional worry and stress at a time when they need their companion animals the most.
Once the program is in place persons trained in this as volunteers or micro businesses will also be an additional source of contact for those needing the service.
Services that can be provided from those certified through the program:
Vet visits
Grooming Nursing home and hospital visits
Basic care and feeding in home
Daily walks
Also training in how to assess if special funding for basic care, feeding and annual shots is needed and setting up provider sources for that.
I would love to hear your ideas on what we can name this project.
I'm working on a basic Curriculum out line now. Once we get approval for the program and its budget, We will begin fund raising. If you have any ideas on that I would love to hear from you as well. Post here or email me through info@llmartin.com with your ideas.
