Définition(s)

  • Recognition of the strong bond between older adults and pet animals has led to the proliferation of programs in health care settings designed to improve the health and well-being of residents through the use of animals. Pets have long been considered sources of unconditional love and acceptance, so it is not surprising that the medical field is exploring the benefits of incorporating animals as treatment tools for physical and emotional therapy.
