Samaritan Latest News 
Samaritan Healthcare and Hospice has been an integral part of my life for over 8 years. My parents were blessed to have their caring and comforting service. Later, my therapy dog and I were privileged to be Samaritan volunteers. In the coming year, I hope to contniue my close relationship and, hopefully, be able to take part in Pet Therapy, Tuck-in, and Visitation services.
