Here’s a quick sneak peek at the Music & Memory Care Session: The Music & Memory program helps people who suffer from a wide range of cognitive and physical challenges to find renewed meaning and connection in their lives through personalized music. Music can awaken the brain and with it, the rich trove of memories that are associated with familiar songs or beloved pieces. Listening to and performing music reactivates areas of the brain associated with memory, reasoning, speech, emotion, and reward. Studies have demonstrated that music enhances the memory of dementia patients. Learn how to use music effectively in memory care and with other residents, and techniques that can be utilized in all care settings.
This series is broken up into 2 sessions a day from February 5th through February 8th. View the full program and register here.
