    How beautiful she was so happy singing away and even when the music stopped she wanted to carry on singing I could watch and listen to her forever ❤️❤️

    She is such an amazing soul. Made me so happy watching her sing like a bird.

    By listening to just a few notes of the song, her face lit up with so much emotions that she began to sing!
    Great job beautiful young lady!
    Many blessings to you and enjoy.

    OMG! HER THOUGHTS AWAKENED WITH THE MUSIC! SHE CAN EVEN SING &REMEMBER TJE LYRICS, HOW UNBELIEVABLE! I HOPE ALL NURSING HOMES WILL DO THIS EVERYDAY AS A THERAPY FOR ALL THEIR CLIENTS. IT WILL EXERCISE THEIR MOUTH, THROAT, BRAIN TO FUNCTION. GOD BLESS THEM !💑

    I still sing weekly to my residents in our Dementia unit and the joy that it brings them they get up and dance or tap along so feel free to share this video to show the importance of music therapy.

    I'm truly glad that this works. Seeing our living ancestors faces light up is heartwarming.
    That said in 50 years it is going to be senior citizens rapping Ol Dirty songs.
    I love it though.

    Beautiful lady!!!! I wish that I had known about music therapy before my mom passed with dementia--June 15, 2015. She LOVED music. 😭😪😞

      greeneyes92061 I’m a nurse’s aide. If she was living in a facility at the time, I can virtually _guarantee_ that she had some kind of music therapy. We’re always singing to our residents, playing music, having little concerts, pulling up TH-cam videos for them, etc.

    my suggestion is to use guitar so you can follow the client when she vocalizes.

    This is such an amazing and PROVEN phenom. But I also know this type of therapy doesn’t happen in a lot of home and it really should.

    Hi Kim, I love your video and was wanting to mention it in my assignment if that's OK. Just wondering if it is based on any specific program and how it was implemented? Thanks Liz.

    • @kimbow8567
      @kimbow8567  9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Liz , Every Wednesday when I am in the unit at some stage of the day I will do music therapy, i actually have a karaoke machine which puts all the words on the TV screen and hooked up to the PA system. Some residents can't read the words but they know the songs some still have the cognitive ability to read the words so they singalong. Some residents just tap their feet move a finger or some get up and dance. I love their interaction, if I do it after tea they want to stay up and in the afternoon it seems to settle so it is very theraputic.
      I have permission from this lady and her family to share the video so be my guest share away. I hope this helps. Kim
