Earn volunteer hours, spend time with horses, and create lasting memories at the barn. Your time makes a huge difference. 🫶🏻

This past week, NTRC’s mini horses had the honor of visiting some of the incredible healthcare professionals who care for our community every single day. ❤️

Thank you to Encompass Health for inviting our minis to celebrate Nurses Week by visiting staff and patients room to room. Watching smiles appear in hallways, patient rooms, and nurses stations was such a meaningful reminder of the power of connection and simple moments of joy.

We also want to thank NCH, pictured here during our visit, for welcoming us to both North and Baker campuses during Hospital Week. Our team was proud to spend time with staff across departments, sharing encouragement, laughter, and a little extra brightness during their busy days.

Nurses Week and Hospital Week are so important because they recognize the people who constantly pour into others. These healthcare professionals show up day after day with compassion, resilience, and dedication, often carrying far more than most people realize. Taking time to celebrate them matters!

To every nurse, healthcare worker, and hospital staff member, thank you for all you do for our community. We are grateful we could give a little joy back. 🐴❤️
