Music therapy and dementia care - Joan Adkins

Ғылым және технология

Angela Joan Adkins, known by most people as Joan, has unspecified dementia. Her family says music is her favorite activity. Joan’s music therapist, Roxie Raykovich, part of the Hospice team from Mayo Clinic Health System, visits periodically, guitar or other instruments in tow, to lead Joan through some of her favorite songs. Roxie took a unique approach to bringing back special memories when she played a song written for Joan by her late son, Guy, who passed away in 2010 at age 41 after a battle with cancer. He wrote and recorded a song about Joan’s life, entitled, “Holy, Holy, Holy.”
