Music Therapy Pilot Test Results – Read all about them here
As part of L&M Healthcare’s Dementia Strategy 2023-26, we introduced four therapeutic activities as the basis of our monthly activity planners: Music, Art, Exercise, and Animal Therapy. From feedback and observations from homes across the group, we found music therapy to play a significant part in encouraging residents to engage and then go on to take part in other activities, and to enhance the mood on our households generally.
Following the highly successful introduction of a weekly full day of music therapy at Hulton House in Preston —in collaboration with music therapy provider Nordoff and Robbins — we wanted to test if the same could be replicated at Cherry Tree House in Stockport. Consequently, a Pilot Test ran over a four-month period which was monitored closely and evaluated.
A PDF report detailing the significant outcomes of the Pilot Test is now available to read by downloading here.
