Knowing when and how to use music as a therapeutic intervention in dementia care isn't always easy. Music can be such a useful tool to relieve anxiety, support communication and elevate mood but how can we handle it with care to realise those benefits?


New research has just been published to guide the most effective use of music in dementia care. Visit Dementia Australia or visit the link to read more. https://tinyurl.com/y3wjob96
