Description: | Select Guide Rating A practice guide and training framework for using music therapy best practices in senior care settings. Includes a teaching introduction to using music therapeutically, as well as specific applications for dementia, cognitive fitness, behavioural health, mental health, and speech and movement rehabilitation. The transformative role music therapy can play in all areas of healthcare, and especially in the care of older adults is increasingly apparent. However, while music activities are present in most care settings, these activities don''t provide the therapeutic benefits that are possible with music therapy-informed interventions and programs. Best practices from music therapy are transforming dementia care, and have the potential to improve healthcare-and health-for older people, whatever their needs, wherever they receive care. |
