Advocate Home Care Services will be adding Animal Assisted Therapy to its lineup of innovative services, spearheaded by Dr. Gabriela Mancini. 

 Millions of seniors suffer the adverse effects of loneliness, depression, and anxiety, which negatively impact their physical health and wellbeing. Studies have shown that Animal Assisted Therapy can significantly reduce these emotions, even if only treated once a week. Advocate Home Care Services will offer this innovative treatment to our patients and offer education necessary to improve their wellbeing. The Animal Assisted Therapy platform utilizes care services that focus on promoting improvement for social, cognitive, physical, and emotional functions.

 Services are offered in both group and individual settings, and can be catered to the need of each patient.
