Why is Background Music for Senior Living Homes So Important?

Background music in senior living homes can positively affect residents’ emotional well-being mood, and quality of life. One literature review found that playing relaxing music during mealtimes caused residents to report higher feelings of satisfaction and calm. 

Another study found that listening to music while completing cognitive tasks improved older adults’ mood and improved performance on memory-related tasks. Overall, this research suggests that background music can have many benefits on the mental well-being of aging populations.

When residents of your senior living home are exposed to calming background music and its many benefits, they will likely report higher satisfaction with your facility and experience a greater connection within the community.
