Assist with the daily feeding, grooming, turnout, health monitoring, medication administration (as directed), and overall care of the horse herd.
Support the continued training, evaluation, and conditioning of program horses through regular riding and handling.
Be prepared to respond appropriately to emergencies, including medical, behavioral, and fire-related situations.
Work collaboratively with the treatment team to provide consistent support for residents and contribute to a positive therapeutic environment.
