Established in July 2013, Music & Memory is an
expressive therapies program operating at St. John Baptist Hospice In-Patient
Unit in downtown Buffalo. Having received a generous grant, The Center for
Hospice and Palliative Care was able to purchase several iPods, docking
stations, and headphones in order to provide patients with personalized music
playlists. The connection patients have to music, and the therapeutic benefit
music provides, is undeniable.
Caitlin Lachaal, Program Coordinator for Music
& Memory, is looking for reliable and dedicated volunteers to help
facilitate this program. Volunteers would be expected to have a general
knowledge of Apple products and be comfortable interacting with patients and
their families. We are looking for volunteers ages 16 and older.
