| Research Abstract |
I carried out Animal Interaction in 2 hospitals/clinics after obtaining their consent and investigated its effect on patients. Under the face scale survey, most of the patients showed more cheerful moods after the interaction than before interacting.Furthermore, interviews with the patients indicated that the interactions were valuable time and therapeutic to them. Based on these facts, when evaluating animal interaction, scale surveys, interviews, and attentive listening which nurses routinely use seem to be effective.
