Musicians for Health

EVENT IS CANCELLED - due to unforeseen circumstances.

This week on Brain Food we have Dayna Ritchy. Join our host, Zac Greenberg, and his guest, Dayna Ritchey, as they discuss dementia and music. Link in bio!

Dayna is the Program Director for the Greater Cincinnati and Miami Valley chapters of the Association. Dayna is a Certified Dementia Practitioner (CDP), and unfortunately has a lot of hands-on experience with Alzheimer’s and other dementias. She was a caregiver to her mother, who died of Alzheimer’s and her father-in-law, who passed from frontotemporal dementia.

You can learn more about Alzheimer’s and Dementia and the Alzheimer’s Association at alz.org. We have a couple of good articles on the use of art and music for people living with dementia as well as how it can help a caregiver stay calm.
