I will be on the afternoon panel of this day-long conference. This year’s annual conference features the film “Alive Inside,” which shows how music can reach into the depths of our souls even when are minds betray us, and some speakers focusing on how to communicate with the person with demential emotionally. The ever-popular Dr. Paul Raia from the Alzheimer’s Association will be the key speaker for the day.
At the end of the day, a panel will take questions from the audience. It will be myself, Dr. Raia, Maureen Bradley, who is a nurse with the Royal Health Group, and Eve Montague, who is a music therapist with the South Shore Conservatory.
