AbstractMusic is a powerful tool for maintaining and restoring health and is particularly suited to elder care. Music can be used to induce relaxation, alter moods, and create distraction. Music's effect is attributed to its vibrational properties, which are processed through the senses and integrated within the central nervous system. Nurses have a major responsibility to understand, appreciate, and use music in their practice.
