families, caregivers, nurses, and social workers
What is happening?• The normalization of medical progress• Music may offer a way forward for
dementia interventions• Musical Reminiscence Therapy (MRT) is
designed to be a best practice for dementia care

Discussion and conclusion: • MRT makes it possible to effect identical neurological
responses with clients from entirely different backgrounds.
• Popular music can produce similar affective responses, no matter where patients are from and where they are now.
• This intervention is cheap, and easy to train healthcare workers to produce dramatic improvements in patient and caregiver lifestyle.
