• "Patricia has been great with my 93 year old mother!"
    She's creative and just seems to know what my mother needs and wants. She's a great aid to me knowing doctors visits, prescription pick-up and grocery runs are all taken care of - big load off my mind and schedule.
  • "The owners and nurse are fantastic!"
    Always willing to take calls from my Mom and explain things in a way she and I can understand. Also walked us through the insurance process. That was not easy and their expertise was greatly appreciated.
  • "ComForCare has given me peace of mind!"
    The fact that ComForCare was able to step in with certified dementia care specialists and begin caring for my father has been fantastic. The staff and caregivers are both sympathetic and empathetic and I feel it has helped my father during this difficult time. It has also given me peace of mind since I live a long distance from my father, and the communication from staff and caregivers is reassuring.

The Power of Music in Caregiving (Senior Outlook Today)

In 1962 at the age of nine, I had the opportunity to see Louis Armstrong perform live at the Steel Pier in Atlantic City, New Jersey. I remember staring up at the bandstand taking in his performance. It was magical listening to his voice and the sounds that came out of his trumpet.  I was truly mesmerized. Many years later, I have not forgotten one moment of that show and when I hear a Louis Armstrong song, I’m transported back to that concert.

Favorite songs trigger memories and those memories are often very complete. They include not only the song and the performer, but also how we were feeling at the time, the people we were with, places we have been and events that were happening. 

This is especially helpful in caring for people living with dementia. Various research shows that the areas of the brain that store musical memories are the last to deteriorate.  This explains why individuals who rarely speak may spontaneously sing when a familiar song is played.
