Using Music with Alzheimer's Patients
 Do you have
a loved one, friend or family member, who has been diagnosed with suspected
Alzheimer’s disease or other dementia? If so,
 this recorded program is a
must. Doctors have known for years that patients with Alzheimer's and
other dementias, respond powerfully to the music of the “courting
years.” Even
when the patient no longer recognizes family members and friends, they
can still hear the familiar music of their courting years and recognize
it, sometimes sing along, but always they derive pleasure from the
experience when others opportunities for pleasure have disappeared.
Music for Memory Care
  Dr.
Cash has conducted clinical research on the use of music with
Alzheimer's patients, documenting the fact that, even when other
awareness of family and friends are gone, many patients can still hear
and recognize the music of their "courting Years." For this
reason, Dr. Cash has recorded over 20 tracks of music from the late
1890's through the 1930's. Even if this music isn't from your
courting years, you'll probably recognize many of the old favorites.
This CD will be enjoyed by anyone looking for some relaxing piano music,
performed by a concert pianist.
Note: The mp3
download will need to be "unzipped" with
WinZip or a similar
program.

Using Music with Alzheimer's Patients
(Interview)
 This program presents the latest information on why Alzheimer’s patients
respond to this music and oftentimes sing along or clap in time to the
music when few other things get their attention or engage them at all.
You don’t want to miss out on an opportunity to provide this simple but
powerful intervention for your friend or family member.
The musical portion contains piano renditions of songs such as “In the
Good Old Summertime” and “My Buddy” plus five other songs, as well as
Dr. Cash and colleagues singing a selection of songs that she sings with
her patients and suggestions for how and when to use these songs.
