Pets at Duke
We created the Pets at Duke Program because pets offer companionship, affection, conversation topics, and reminiscing opportunities. Two volunteer roles are available; a pet handler and a facilitator.
Medicare Beneficiary Council
The Medicare Beneficiary Council comprises local Medicare beneficiaries who receive care within the Duke Accountable Care network. This council partners with Duke Connected Care, a physician-led accountable care organization, to create strategies to improve performance and better engage beneficiaries.
