WAG’S Pet Therapy

Pet therapy can reduce feelings of loneliness or isolation, encourage communication and socialization skills, and provide comfort during stressful times. 


Your dog needs to have a Good Canine Certificate and you’ll need to provide your dog’s health certification. You also must be at least 18 year old and be part of our Volunteer Services. Volunteers coordinate their own availability schedule for them and their dog(s) to be at site. However, it’s important to keep in touch and stay communicated with your coordinator. 




Clovis Community Guild

The Clovis Community Guild is a volunteer organization whose members donate their time and skills at Clovis Community Medical Center. The Guild began in 1956 with a small group of leaders from the community of Clovis. Those visionary leaders saw the need for a hospital to serve Clovis' growing community, and they formed the Clovis Hospital Guild.

The gift shop at Clovis Community is operated exclusively by Guild members and helps support their fundraising goals for projects on the hospital campus. Hours of operation are Monday-Friday, 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. (schedule subject to change).

This dedicated, hard-working volunteer group has generously donated more than $1.5 million dollars to Clovis Community through the years, helping to purchase:


  • Lab equipment
  • TVs for patient rooms

  • A closed-circuit monitoring system for the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU)

  • The water feature at the front entrance to Clovis Community
