Beautiful - so much amazing creative stuff and discussions going on in care settings which we really need to highlight. Full meaningful lives being led and really wonderful work being done by care staff teams, residents and arts partners. #artsineverycarehome
Our conversation today reinforced for me the massive value of being care home #researchactive - art, faith, romance & intimacy, happiness, footcare, culture, end of life care, full lives, proud & magic moments, dental care, music, atmosphere. CareHome life🤔 we do it all🥳😍

Music therapy can be highly effective for those who have difficulty communicating verbally. Musical participation and response does not depend on the ability to speak. 💙 #music #dementia #musicfordementia
