🎶 Far more than entertainment, music is a lifeline for people on the dementia journey. It’s one of the most powerful tools we have for communication, connection, and emotional well-being. Even as memory shifts and language changes, the brain’s musical pathways often remain intact longer than other cognitive systems. A familiar melody can spark recognition, soothe anxiety, energize a sluggish afternoon, or open a door to conversation that words alone can no longer reach.
See how at Artis, music is a form of care disguised as play – and learn 10 musical activities families can enjoy during visits! artisseniorliving.com/blog/why-music-is-instrumental-for-people-living-with-dementia/
