Music and Memory

Music stirs our souls and ignites memories! Share with one of our residents as they put on headphones and listen to a playlist of songs that they remember and that brings back memories!

We build personalized playlists of music from the residents formative years and that helps to improve their their quality of life and their care. Scientific research indicates that music is deeply rooted in our conscious and unconscious brains. Music becomes even more important as the functioning of the brain deteriorates from Alzheimer's disease, dementia and other types of cognitive loss. It awakens the brain and the memories associated with familiar songs and beloved pieces of music.
