Symptoms such as refusal to cooperate, impaired communication and cognition, and agitation and anxiety can play a large part in the difficulties that surround caring for an AD patient. There are medications that are marketed to treat AD symptoms, but many have harmful side effects. Holistic methods, such as music therapy, are gaining attention for their ease of implementation and limited side effects. <b>Aim:</b> The purpose of this project was to implement a music therapy intervention for people with AD in hospice and evaluate the levels of agitation experienced by the patient. <b>Method:</b> The study was conducted over a period of eight weeks. Music therapy was administered nightly for 20 minutes by caregivers and the Pittsburgh Agitation Scale was completed at the beginning of the study, at four weeks into the study, and at the completion of the study. <b>Results:</b> The intervention was found to be significant in reducing aberrant vocalization, motor agitation, aggressiveness, and resisting care. <b>Conclusion:</b> Based on the findings, music therapy may be useful as a holistic intervention for decreasing agitation in individuals with AD.</p>","PeriodicalId":51615,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Holistic Nursing","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10164913","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
