Visiting Animals

We know that spending time with your pet can bring joy and happiness! As an Eden Alternative facility, we welcome dogs and cats into our building to visit with residents. We simply require all visiting animals to be healthy, up-to-date on vaccinations, and well-tempered. If you are interested in bringing in an animal to visit with a resident, please contact Amanda Wittelsberger at 410-601-2863 or email abojan@lifebridgehealth.org to initiate the screening process.

The screening process will require a form signed by the animal's veterinarian as well as a temperament test. We look forward to meeting your furry friend!

You can have food and clothing items delivered directly to your loved one or bring it yourself. Please be sure to put the patient's name and room number on the items and make sure they are added to their belongings list.
