Dublin Assisted Living & Memory Support by Senior Star is committed to offering ongoing education for healthcare professionals and family caregivers who are caring for individuals with memory loss.  Senior Star’s Music & Memory? certification reinforces their commitment to person-centered care where customized playlists are created in an effort to give residents a new language in which to communicate.  Music can also help unlock personal memories and allow those with Alzheimer’s access to special times in their lives, which can be very effective in managing moods and reducing anxiety.
Music & Memory? is a nonprofit organization that brings personalized music into the lives of the elderly through digital music technology, vastly improving quality of life.
