When Remy signed up for Pets on Wheels, the volunteer program that matches pets with nursing homes and hospitals, he had to take a test to ensure that his behavior was acceptable. I had to take a training class to learn what I could and could not do (because residents would ask me to do nurse-type duties.)
The main things that I remember they tested Remy on were taking treats gently (no snapping), not freaking out at wheelchairs and walkers, and not jumping on people, ever.
