More music activities

Hi, I have just added a couple of music activities in 'Activities for people with Dementia' and here are some suggestions to be carried out by carers/nurses/volunteers

• Singing with clients as they are dressed in the mornings
• Tuning radio to suit clients preferences
• Using music as a strategy to distract from unacceptable behaviour
• Engaging clients in responding to music: Clapping, tapping and moving.
• Using music to enhance exercises
• Using music for reality orientation
• Instructing and encouraging on how too use percussion instruments

Good luck!
