Falling for Falko: Temple University Hospital staff finds therapy in police K9
Briefly

A nurse asked, 'can I meet your dog?' So, I brought him into the ER department and every nurse just came flocking to him with huge smiles on their faces! It was really rewarding, because you could tell the stress and how hard their job is getting to them. As they walk by, you'd see their face light up, run over to him, and I'd watch them go into a patient's room with a huge smile on their face. I said to myself I have to do this more often.
The first time he was brought to us, Falko stayed with one of our trauma patients. You could see the changes on the face of the patient, instead of being depressed, he was talking to Falko. He's very calm, telling patients, 'I'm here, it's going to be ok.' He is always welcome in our trauma center.
