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
