HERSILL | NEWS | EVENTS |
HERSILL’s core mission is to provide healthcare professionals with solutions to treat ailments and care for patients; but this purpose is complemented by supporting initiatives aimed at improving people’s well-being and lives.
We attach importance to the holistic conception of patients and the care of their physical, but also emotional well-being, which has beneficial effects on their health. One of the disciplines that has proven its effectiveness in this regard is music therapy. About 20-30 percent of patients in palliative care receive some type of intervention of this type of therapy, according to data from the Vianorte-Laguna Foundation.
At HERSILL we are committed to this type of strategy, and for this reason we have collaborated as a benefactor with this Foundation to make possible the ‘Day of Awareness and Approach to Music Therapy in Palliative Care and Brain Damage’, which will be celebrated, on the occasion of the World Day of Palliative Care, on October 10th from 4:30 pm to 7:30 pm at the Vianorte- Laguna Care Hospital (Consejal Francisco José Jiménez Martin, 128, Latina).
With the event, the Vianorte-Laguna Foundation, specialized in the care of patients with advanced diseases and people with cognitive impairment and their families, seeks to show the benefits of music therapy in improving the quality of life of patients.
To this end, it will have the participation of six renowned experts in music therapy, who will share their knowledge and experience with real-life case studies. Through their talks, they will publicize the impact of this discipline on the well-being of patients, encouraging research, interdisciplinary collaboration and training of other professionals.
The event, which will be moderated and presented by Veronica Mengod, actress and TVE presenter, is aimed at professionals, family members, patients and the community and is open to all interested public.
