Thank you to Movses and the team for having Dovida in store today. It’s great to see the service you give to the local community. The star of the show was 107 year old Maria, who was off on her weekly trip to the bowling club.

The power of music for people living with dementia 🎶

Music has a unique ability to touch our hearts and minds, and its impact can be especially profound for those living with dementia. 💖

Research shows that music can evoke memories, reduce anxiety, and improve mood, offering a powerful tool for enhancing the quality of life for people with dementia.

For caregivers and family members, sharing musical experiences can strengthen bonds and create meaningful moments. Whether it's playing a favorite song, singing together, or simply listening to soothing melodies, music can be a powerful ally in the journey with dementia.

Why not create a special playlist to share with your loved one?
