Adult Day Program Music Group:
Music Therapy is an established healthcare profession that uses music to address physical, emotional, cognitive, and social needs of individuals of all ages. The music therapy group provided for people at day programs is a time for group members to share quality musical experiences. Group members are encouraged to choose songs and artists featured in each session. Music may include Elvis Presley, 50's Rock, The Beatles, Patriotic songs, holiday/seasonal songs, requests, and adapted songwriting. Shakers, tambourines, and drums are always available to group members. Participants actively engage by watching, vocalizing, making facial expressions, listening, playing instruments, singing, and making eye contact with friends. Pictures and visual props are often utilized to help people become involved in the group. The music group also shapes and reinforces social skills, increases cognition, and decreases stress. The music therapy group continues to be a well-attended and popular group activity for group members.
