MUSIC & MEMORY® Tablet Engagement

Enriching Lives with Everyday
Technology

Cost: $800 (Free for certified organizations)

  • Using FaceTime and Skype to stay connected with family and loved ones.
  • Creating a personalized music playlist.
  • Engaging in interactive or individual activities with recommended music engagement apps.

Now more than ever, as residential care organizations are looking for more in-room activities to help reduce the emotional and physical effects of isolation, tablets can make it easier to stay connected and provide genuine communication.

Music & Memory provides a in-depth training for caregivers to introduce tablets to your communities. Designed as an extension of our personalized music program, participants will learn how to use a tablet to inspire meaningful experiences for those in their care, including how to create a personalized music playlist and how to engage with a number of great apps.

Training also includes guidance for purchasing a tablet and making it more accessible.

"The use of the tablet is unlimited. They can be used by all to varying degrees, with and without assistance."

- Cindy Dawson, Oneida County Long Term Care, West Malad, Idaho
