Discoteca silenciosa para pacientes con demencia en Singapur
- el año pasado
Bajo las luces de colores, los pacientes de una residencia de Singapur se agarran de la mano y bailan viejas canciones en una "discoteca silenciosa", una iniciativa para ayudar a los enfermos con demencia.
In a silent disco format, they listen to tunes via their headphones.
"Studies have generally shown that musical programmes do have positive outcomes on persons with dementia in terms of their overall well-being, cognition and emotion," Grace Wong, Associate Psychologist at Apex Harmony Lodge says.
