Lyrics & Laughter ~ Connecting Through Music ~ 6 Week Series

September 15, 2016 at 9:25 am - October 20, 2016 at 2:30 pm

Free

Research shows that music, especially with active participation, demonstrates physiological, emotional and social benefits to those with memory loss. Active participation stimulates the brain and also has some physical benefits. Music is a road to memories and helps those with dementia to engage and socialize in ways they normally cannot do.

Valley VNA collaborated with Dr. Susan McFadden of UW-Oshkosh to design, implement and evaluate the program, which is based off the United Kingdom Alzheimer Society’s program “Singing for the Brain.”

We offer two different times to attend.  Call to register!

Thursdays, September 15th through October 20th, 9:30 am to 10:30 am & 1:30 pm to 2:30 pm

*Funds available through a grant with the Fox Valley Community Foundation for those in their home for transporation and a caregiver to attend.
