Fantastic to present at Sherwood Forest Hospitals Celebrating Excellence event, talking about the pioneering partnership we have with the Trust to embed music/music-making as part of everyday care. 'It's not just a nice thing to have, it's an essential part of compassionate care'
Yesterday, I graduated from @MyBCU with a BSc (Hons) in Speech and Language Therapy. Thankful for all the support and patience of family, friends, lecturers and placement educators! Onwards! 🌻🙌 #IamBCU #SLT #ClassOf2024

I never fail to be moved by the effects of finding someone’s #music #language at the advanced stages of #dementia. This lady used to be a church organist - see how she responds to hearing this familiar hymn. Please remember ppl never stop #listening @MusicforDemUK. #EOL #care 🎶
Have you ever wondered what effect music has on the body and brain?🧠 Chanda and Levitin (2013) explored the neurochemical effects of music 📚 and discovered how music can be a powerful tool in reducing stress, anxiety, and enhancing mood. 🎵 #NeuroscienceOfMusic
Joining us on Swallowing Awareness Day (13/3/24) to raise awareness about eating, drinking & swallowing difficulties? We’ve amazing resources for you to download: rcslt.org/events/swallow… #SwallowAware2024 #NHWeek @NHWeek @WeAHPs
We've had some great feedback from the carers who joined us for our recent Music Care training course. "It made me feel the most confident I have felt in training sessions I've ever done before." Interested in future courses? Hear it first ➡️ mailchi.mp/4d441fce4e0f/o…
Thanks to @ace_national and @TNLComFund we were able to implement three new music groups in Ashfield, Bolsover, and Nottingham. We had a great time making music with these communities. You can find out more about the sessions here ➡ opusmusic.org/community-musi… #CommunityMusic
Approaching dating and relationships with a digestive condition can often feel very daunting. You might fear judgement and worry about how to talk about your symptoms. You might experience stress which can make your gut worse (the gut-brain connection is super real). (🧵1/6)
Did you know that music could be your secret weapon against pain and low mood? 🎵🛡️ Siedliecki & Good found that music significantly increased feelings of power and decreased pain, depression, and disability in working-age adults with chronic non-malignant pain. #MusicHealth
FRIYAY!!!! What a fitting song for a Friday with @music_health we are always happy when the gang come to see us and our patients. Thank you for giving us our friYAY boost 😊
