Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music therapy is an adjunct healing modality designed to alleviate symptoms of existential pain and suffering hospice patients may experience as they transition into the final stage of life. The complexity of existential pain and suffering in hospice patients is a challenge for a hospice care team to treat and manage and emotionally testing on the patient's support system. The purpose of this scholarly project is to evaluate a music therapy program at a local community hospice center as an aid to relieve patients' existential pain and suffering they incur from their terminal illness and to increase hospice care providers' knowledge about incorporating music therapy as an adjunct healing modality. Bearing witness to patient experience occurred in collaboration with a board-certified music therapist during patient therapy sessions. Jean Watson's Theory of Human Caring Science provides a theoretical framework for developing an education session on music therapy to employ with hospice care providers. Participants of the education sessions discussed the physical effects music has on the body, using music as a healing modality for patients, and caregivers incorporating music as a healing modality. Findings of the developmental evaluation of the education sessions offered indicated the audience of nursing students gained the greatest benefit from the education offered. Future integrations of this scholarly project will allow an advanced nurse practitioner to implement music therapy as a healing modality and incorporate education sessions to meet the needs of a diverse patient population throughout life's transitions.
Book Synopsis Music Therapy in Palliative Care by : David Aldridge
Download or read book Music Therapy in Palliative Care written by David Aldridge and published by Jessica Kingsley Publishers. This book was released on 1999 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the last decade music therapists have developed their work with people who have life-threatening illnesses and with those who are dying. This book presents some of that work from music therapists working in different approaches, in different countries, showing how valuable the inclusion of music therapy in palliative care has already proved to be. It is important for the dying, or those with terminal illness, that approaches are used which integrate the physical, psychological, social and spiritual dimensions of their being. The contributors to this book emphasize the importance of working not only with the patient but with the ward situation, friends and family members. By offering patients the chance to be creative they become something other than patients - they become expressive beings, and there is an intimacy in music therapy that is important for those who are suffering. Many of the contributors write in their own personal voice, providing a particular insight which will be valuable not only to other music therapists seeking to enrich their own ways of working, but to all those involved in caring for the sick and the dying. Contributors describe their work with both children and adults living with HIV/AIDS, cancer and other chronic degenerative diseases.

Book Synopsis The Effects of Original Songwriting in Music Therapy Sessions on the Hospice Experience and Bereavement Process of Patients and Their Families by : Jill Christine Anderson
Download or read book The Effects of Original Songwriting in Music Therapy Sessions on the Hospice Experience and Bereavement Process of Patients and Their Families written by Jill Christine Anderson and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects that music therapy, and songwriting in particular, have on the family members of hospice patients. Participants (N=8) were chosen from an available group of families who experienced songwriting in hospice care, whether the patient wrote all or part of a song, or the family wrote a song about the patient. Individual interviews were conducted with each participant, and each participant answered a series of questions regarding their hospice experience, their perception of their loved one's experience, their bereavement, and their experience with music therapy. Results showed that families found hospice overall to be a very positive experience, and that music therapy played a large role in all their perceptions of hospice care. All participants initiated discussion of music therapy and their family's song early in the interview, and all had many positive things to say about the music therapist, the song, and the meaning the song had for them and their family. In the majority of cases, the song written in music therapy was played at the memorial or funeral service. Other common themes noted were that for many, the song sent a message, embodied their loved one, or gave their loved one a sense of purpose. Many of the participants knew nothing or little of music therapy prior to their experience in hospice, and they all found it to be rewarding, and much more involved than they expected. Many of the participants still listen to the song, although a few indicated that it was difficult for them or that they could not listen to it yet. However, they all said that the song has a special meaning for them.

Book Synopsis Receptive Music Therapy In Palliative Care by : Cordula Dietrich
Download or read book Receptive Music Therapy In Palliative Care written by Cordula Dietrich and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2023-01-18 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are currently facing very challenging times. Through the COVID-19 pandemic, death and dying came very close to everybody, regardless of age or cultural background. Many people had to face the sudden, often unexpected passing of a dear person. Death breaks into people ́s lives, not asking, if they are prepared for it or if it is the right time. Many questions arise with this fact, and one of them often is the concern of how to die with dignity when the end of life is nearing. Dying in dignity is a concern of palliative care, which aims to care and not to cure, focusing on the life quality of a patient who is facing the last days of their life. Sound and music can play an important role in this process. This book is meant to encourage all those working in a palliative care team to consider music as a powerful tool in dealing with the challenges surrounding the end of life. The book will inspire the reader to examine the healing power of sound and music more deeply and serves as a useful support for students in palliative care approaches.

Book Synopsis The Effects of Music Therapy Interventions on Grief and Spirituality of Family Members of Patients in a Hospice Setting by : Minoru Okamoto
Download or read book The Effects of Music Therapy Interventions on Grief and Spirituality of Family Members of Patients in a Hospice Setting written by Minoru Okamoto and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of music therapy interventions on grief and spirituality of family members of patients in a hospice setting. The subjects (N = 60) were the family members or significant others of hospice patients who had been in the hospice program for at least 2 weeks. The subjects were divided into a control group (N = 30), the family members of patients previously with no music therapy visit, and an experimental group (N = 30), the family members of patients receiving music therapy interventions. Three imminent patients were also included in both groups. A self-report questionnaire was used for a post-test only in this study and had 5 categories: grief, coping strategies, spirituality, satisfaction with hospice care, and satisfaction for family members' or significant other's perceptions of the loved one's quality of life (QOL). A multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was applied to analyze data in each subtest. There was a significant difference in mean scores of QOL between the control and experimental groups. Although the mean scores of grief and spirituality in the experimental group were higher than the scores of those with no music therapy, a significant difference was not found in the 4 subtests. However, there was a tendency that those who received music therapy showed higher scores than those who did not in each subtest. In addition, the mean scores of family members of imminent patients were much higher than those with no music therapy in all 5 categories. The results in this study support that music has a potential to provide a positive influence for patients and their family members in a hospice setting. Further quantitative research for family members of imminent patients were suggested to provide better music therapy services in a hospice and palliative care.
Book Synopsis Handbook of Psychiatry in Palliative Medicine by : Harvey Max Chochinov
Download or read book Handbook of Psychiatry in Palliative Medicine written by Harvey Max Chochinov and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 591 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psychiatric, or psychosocial, palliative care has transformed palliative medicine. Palliation that neglects psychosocial dimensions of patient and family experience fails to meet contemporary standards of comprehensive palliative care. While a focus on somatic issues has sometimes overshadowed attention to psychological, existential, and spiritual end-of-life challenges, the past decade has seen an all encompassing, multi-disciplinary approach to care for the dying take hold. Written by internationally known psychiatry and palliative care experts, the Handbook of Psychiatry in Palliative Medicine is an essential reference for all providers of palliative care, including psychiatrists, psychologists, mental health counselors, oncologists, hospice workers, and social workers.
Book Synopsis Supportive Care in Cancer Patients by : Hans-Jörg Senn
Download or read book Supportive Care in Cancer Patients written by Hans-Jörg Senn and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The symposium on supportive care in cancer patients, which took place in St. Gallen, Switzerland, on February 18-21, 1987, wel comed renowned experts in the field and more than 600 partici pants from 25 countries with the aim of stimulating discussion on how to improve our professional skills and personal attitudes to ward cancer patients in all stages of their disease. Why did we or ganize such a symposium on supportive care in cancer patients? Recent decades have witnessed remarkable success in cancer treat ment, and we have learned how to cure a finite number of neoplas tic diseases. Some malignant tumors that previously entailed high fatality rates, such as leukemias, lymphomas, and testicular can cers, can now be cured, even when at an advanced stage. Yet it seems to many that our struggle to improve results and to fight death from cancer has also imposed greater toxicity on patients. Conventional scientifically based oncology has only recently made adequate efforts to improve the subjective quality of life of cancer patients, for example through prophylaxis against emesis, nausea, and scalp hypothermia, pain control and the development of psy chosocial support structures. The search for less toxic and yet equally effective treatment measures has not been one of our pri mary goals in the past. Supportive care has always been part of nurses' professional aim, even though many have not known how best to offer it.

After too many years of unfulfilling work, Bronnie Ware began searching for a job with heart. Despite having no formal qualifications or previous experience in the field, she found herself working in palliative care. During the time she spent tending to those who were dying, Bronnie's life was transformed. Later, she wrote an Internet blog post, outlining the most common regrets that the people she had cared for had expressed. The post gained so much momentum that it was viewed by more than three million readers worldwide in its first year. At the request of many, Bronnie subsequently wrote a book, The Top Five Regrets of the Dying, to share her story. Bronnie has had a colourful and diverse life. By applying the lessons of those nearing their death to her own life, she developed an understanding that it is possible for everyone, if we make the right choices, to die with peace of mind. In this revised edition of the best-selling memoir that has been read by over a million people worldwide, with translations in 29 languages, Bronnie expresses how significant these regrets are and how we can positively address these issues while we still have the time. The Top Five Regrets of the Dying gives hope for a better world. It is a courageous, life-changing book that will leave you feeling more compassionate and inspired to live the life you are truly here to live.

Download or read book The Effect of Music Therapy on the Perceived Quality of Life of Patients with Terminal Illness in a Hospice Setting written by Caroline Marie Abbott and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the study was to determine if there were any significant differences in perceived mood states between patients in hospice care who received music therapy services and patients in hospice care who did not receive music therapy services. Twenty-eight participants were surveyed using the Profile of Mood States (short form). Fourteen participants received music therapy services for a minimum of five hours, and fourteen participants did not receive music therapy services. The participants were matched in pairs by gender, location, diagnosis, and age, and were patients in one of three hospice locations in the United States which agreed to participate in the study. Staff at each hospice location was responsible for choosing participants, securing informed consent and administering the surveys. Results of paired t-tests revealed that there were no significant differences between the groups. Two factors approached significance, however. The participants who received music therapy had lower scores on the anger scale and higher scores on the fatigue scale than the non-music therapy participants.
