Abstract:
A study was conducted on the implementation and evaluation of a therapeutic device by singing in a protected unit for elderly people with Alzheimer's dementia. This randomised and controlled research consists of an experimental group participating in the therapeutic mediation device by singing, and a group benefiting from conventional care. The results indicate that the therapeutic mediation device of singing significantly promotes emotional expression, self-awareness, and acts on the psycho-behavioural disorders of older subjects.
