Speaker: Maribeth Gallagher, DNP, FAAN
Dr. Gallagher is the director of Hospice of the Valley’s award-winning Dementia Program. Her work with Hospice of the Valley’s dementia program was awarded first place by the International Journal of Palliative Nursing in London. Her commitment to improving dementia care was initially inspired by her own experiences as a family caregiver, sharing the journey with her loved one with dementia from diagnosis to death.

Entertainer: Riviera Strings
Riviera Strings has over 30 years of experience playing weddings, receptions, corporate events, and parties. All of their members perform in local symphonies.

Join us as we dive into the connection between music and dementia in an informative talk followed by a live concert. We’ll learn how music can positively impact those with dementia and the step-by-step process of how families can provide individualized music to foster joy, bring comfort and enhance quality of life.
