The eighth Canine Companions® facility dog has officially joined the Baylor Scott & White family! Facility dog Evans, has joined Baylor Scott & White The Heart Hospital – Denton’s trio of facility dogs known as the “Dogs of Cardiac Support.” The three help heal hearts physically and emotionally. When working, Evans is not only spreading joy to patients and staff but helping with healing as well. He helps with motivation during physical therapy sessions and walking after surgery. His co-handler, Meeghan Abraham, pharmacy manager at Baylor Scott & White The Heart Hospital – Denton, is working on ideas to incorporate him during communication on medication and discharge info – to help create triggers to remind patients what they have learned. ❤️🐾
