CTV News: Researchers to study impact of facility dog at Cambridge Memorial Hospital
/in NewsCheck out the CTV News Story Here
“Cambridge Memorial said it’s the first hospital in Canada to have a dedicated facility dog provided by National Service Dogs. Ember is not a therapy dog, and rarely interacts with the public. The hospital does have two therapy dogs that can work with patients, but Ember is meant for the staff.
Now, the University of Guelph is planning to research the impact Ember is having.
“[We’re] particularly interested to see how Ember can support staff. More importantly, we want to make sure that staff are well and also that we retain staff,” said Basem Gohar, assistant professor in the Department of Population Medicine at the Ontario Veterinary College at the University of Guelph.”
