Good Samaritan's harp therapy program addresses residents' needs

In 2008, the Albert Lea location introduced a therapeutic harp music program that is inherently resident centered. The harp practitioner is available to visit residents on an individual basis (and their families, if desired). Her task is to become attuned to each resident and to customize the session to address the person’s specific needs at that moment. The result is a service that provides multidimensional benefits. To find out more, the Journal on Active Aging® recently asked Theresa Thorland to describe Good Samaritan’s therapeutic harp music program and how it works.
