Soothe

Soothe is a music, movement, and meditation evening program for persons with Dementia. Soothe mitigates symptoms of sundowning and transitions residents to bedtime through its progressively relaxing design. Soothe uses aromatherapy, light rhythmic bilateral movement to reinforce positive associations, and concepts from Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), proven to be an effective intervention for persons with Dementia.

Soothe addresses three particular unmet needs for persons with Dementia in residential facilities:

-purposeful programming to help mitigate symptoms of sundowning

-intentionally soothing to appeal to those who are easily over-stimulated

-lack of recreational programs in the evening

Soothe is the perfect way to wind down the day

Senior Sing

Senior Sing is a choral program at your facility consisting of weekly rehearsals with themed concerts. This program ran successfully at a local assisted living, with an assisted living choir and memory care choir performing together in five themed concerts such as A Patriotic Concert, Winter Wonderland and A Grateful Heart.

Residents are provided with packets for rehearsals and printed programs at each concert. Concerts are themed by occasion in song selection, attire and decor. Senior Sing is a unique, special offering that is meaningful for residents and marketable for your facility.
