Companion Animals in Care Environments
The content included in this section of the Website are part of the information Paula (Kamrath) Frakes, CENSHARE's previous Director, has passionately pulled together over the years. The articles above follow a logical reading progression and introduce important issues to be addressed BEFORE bringing visiting, working, or live-in companion animals into a facility. Although this topic has become very popular recently, not nearly enough has been done to address the welfare of animals.
Ms. Frakes is pleased to announce the release of a book that she has contributed to entitled Animals in Residential Facilities: Guidelines and Resources for Success. This book is available through the Delta Society and represents a comprehensive resource on properly and humanely incorporating animals into senior or other residential living environments.
