The Uniformed Services University’s facility dog, Sgt. Grover, and his handler Paula Bellini, walk around introducing Grover to visitors and invite them to pet and engage with him and his specific skill sets during the July 29, 2023, Military Medical Innovation: The Future is Now event at the National Museum of Health and Medicine in Silver Spring, Maryland.
Bellini explains the differences between service, facility, therapy, and medical alert animals and the benefits they provide. She specifically focuses on the benefits of having a facility dog in a military medical school and how it helps the students and staff with stress relief, community building, and education on working animals.
