ACHF Arts Access
Adult Day Services music therapy participants will develop self-expressive, motor, communication, self-soothing, and executive functioning skills. The MacPhail therapist will create a group goal plan, take regular progress notes, and use in-depth client assessments and MORA staff evaluations at three partnership meetings to measure outcome progress. 2: Adult Day Services clients will have quality music experiences in a space that is familiar and adapted to their specific needs. The quality of the arts experience will be measured by its success in meeting therapeutic goals. The proposed program will take place on-site, which is evaluated by staff according to service goals.
Thus far, nine of nine ADS participants have increased self -soothing and self-expressive skills, and decreased disruptive behaviors through music. Our project start date was June 6, 2017. We received a progress report from MacPhail Center For Music with each client's goals, objectives, data and progress, and future goals reached so far. This project will be complete on May 31, 2018. 2: All of ADS participants feel more familiar with this environment and are comfortable with the space and people around them. This will be measured through a similar procedure as stated above. Also, participants will participate in a music performance this April/ May; Families and MORAs staff will attend. Also, we will provide families with surveys at this event.
