ACHF Arts Access
Six performances at places where seniors with memory needs live will be booked for the grant performances. Locations will be selected for a diversity of population within the memory needs community. In some instances memory care residents will be mixed with non memory care needs and in some instances the performance will be in a locked memory care area. 100 memory care residents will benefit from this memory stimulation activity. Attendees at the six performances will exhibit memory stimulation as evidence by facial engagement, singing along, clapping and tapping. Audience and care takers will be verbally evaluated after each performance to assess if memory stimulation occurred. Follow up with facility management will be done to further evaluate.
