Music Therapy with Apex – Season 1&2

Music Therapy with Apex is a local service that aims to treat patients with dementia and Alzheimer’s through a musical approach. Music therapy can trigger memory in patients, which they can benefit from maintaining their abilities such as communication and motor skills. We will be working with Apex Harmony lodge to study the effects of such medical treatment on the residents.

Our first meet-up consisted of exploring the symptoms and causes of dementia as well as understanding how every session will progress. I am particularly looking forward to this service, not only because this is my first year, but also because I have a strong passion for music and a keen interest in psychiatry. The idea of being able to collaborate with and aid those in need through a method that incorporates my interests makes this service more significant and meaningful to me. Additionally, my growing interest in psychiatry and the study of various mental disorders have guided me to consider a medical career path. I believe that this service will provide the perfect opportunity for me to gain some experience in a practical environment where I will be able to observe the situation personally, rather than just having a theoretical concept. This will also put me out of my comfort zone, which I am anticipating challenges and sensible decision-making.
