‘Amazed at how in-depth Musikind was’ ~ Care Team member after a training session
Our mission is to put all the varied benefits of music into the hands of carers – empowering them to use music in more ways, more often.
I’m Interested!
Research shows that the benefits of music go far beyond providing entertainment and that it’s one of the most stimulating and rewarding activities people can partake in during later life. Music is a non-pharmaceutical, non-verbal & highly flexible medium for supporting well-being. It’s important to see music not only as an activity but as part of daily care.
Musikind gives £1 from every subscription directly to Alzheimer’s Society. Every month.
Registered Charity Number : 296645
TIME-EFFECTIVE DESIGN
Carers can quickly glide from screen to screen and access the music best suited for the care situation and the individual’s preferences.
DESIGNED BY A MUSIC THERAPIST
Carers can read tips that apply to the specific use of music they have chosen. There is also an online training module for when staff have more time to learn.
PERSON-CENTRED TOOLS
Create Music Profiles and Music Plans with Musikind to begin learning more about a person’s ‘musical self’ and schedule music into their weekly routine.
