How to embed music into personalized care plans for people living with dementia

Music for dementia has joined forces with the Office of the Chief Social Worker for Adults, DHSC to coproduce two guides for Social Workers on how to embed music into personalized care plans for people living with dementia.

The full-length guide covers the benefits of a musical approach for people living with dementia and how to include it in strengths-based assessments, including the role of link workers, family and friends in making this happen.

The one-page short guide is a colorful summary of the information, intended as a quick reference resource.

Both guides can be viewed and downloaded from the Music for Dementia website (opens new window)
