In this episode, we delve deep into the power of sound and music and explore how music can serve as a bridge to connect us with those who have dementia.
Grace Meadows is a music therapist and Campaign Director for Music for Dementia, a UK based campaign with a mission to make music an integral part of dementia care.
"Music isn't a nicety, it's a necessity for people living with dementia"
We explore:
- The importance of sound in human beings: did you know we are wired for rhythm pre-birth through the heartbeat of our mother?
- How to incorporate music into daily tasks to support smooth transitions through the day
- How music can be used as a tool for those resistive moments
- How music can support the caregiver/care partner
- Why music is a conduit for connection and creativity
- Grace shares a touching story about a man who was resisting care until a music therapist became involved
