Surprisingly, the power of music extends to the most challenging stages of Alzheimer's and other dementias. While cognitive decline wears down many abilities, the brain's capacity to process and respond to music often endures. Music can bring to mind vivid memories, sparking joy and reducing agitation. It provides a unique avenue for connection, even when verbal communication fades.
By stimulating emotional, cognitive, and physical responses, music is emerging as a cornerstone of dementia care, offering solace, engagement, and a profound sense of well-being.
