PET THERAPY
Pet Therapy is another promising facet of our memory care program, and serves to benefit the residents battling the effects of memory loss in many ways. Interacting with trained companion animals helps memory care patients develop meaningful connections. The act of caring for and nurturing a pet draws to the surface rich memories, while also helping to reduce anxiety and depression. This simple exchange of love and care often works to calm our residents by creating enjoyable distractions teeming with cuddles.
MUSIC THERAPY
Regency takes pride in our Music Therapy programs, yet another helpful facet of our memory care efforts. Music therapy can stimulate memories through the use of songs residents recognize and enjoy. The results are truly inspiring! Like the flip of a switch, the use of music has an instantaneous impact on activating the cognitive process. We find that music therapy often results in dancing, smiles, happiness, and the kind of life enrichment our loved ones deserve. Also, the benefits are undeniable.
