Hold your horses! You've heard of pet therapy, but these four-legged friends are probably not the animals you were thinking of, right? Last week, we showed you how leaders at Our Lady of Mercy explored an Equine Expressive Arts exercise as a learning approach to help nurture their caregiving skills. Now check out how our residents shared in all the fun and benefited from seeing and petting the horses up close. Like owning pets, the experience of pet thereapy helps lower stress and improve residents' moods!
