Music Therapy on Wheels for Paediatric Patients
"The Music Rx cart is very versatile and has really streamlined everything I need to help our patients benefit from music therapy. When the kids, nurses and staff see the interactive music video screen and hear the instruments, the mood is lightened and they get really excited!" Green said
In the hospital setting, music therapy can be used to help alleviate pain, improve a patient's mood, stimulate movement and communication, calm anxieties and fears, promote relaxation, and make the hospital feel more like home.
The patient does not need any musical experience or ability to participate in music therapy.
A previous study has already shown in 2008 that Music Rx positively affects a child's mood, family bonding and pain scores.
A second component of the Music Rx program features a live music element, with professional harpists, cellists, flautists and other community musicians playing soothing music in the paediatric hallways.
Further expanding on the music therapy program at UCLA, experts are developing a recording studio where patients can compose and record their own music using industry-standard software. (ANI)
