Hospice of Redmond REDMOND, Ore. (KTVZ) – Hospice of Redmond has become a partner of Pet Peace of Mind, a program that provides a care model for the pets of hospice patients. The program aims to keep hospice patients with their pets when they can no longer care for them due to their worsening health. Hospice of Redmond says it is the only hospice provider in Central Oregon offering support for pets in this capacity. Oftentimes, hospice caregivers are overwhelmed and do not have enough time to take care of the pet, and the pet gets unintentionally neglected or surrendered to a rescue organization or shelter.
