This ministry recognizes that everyone in
the family is experiencing grief, loss and change and desires to
support the patient. In this setting, the music facilitates an
atmosphere of compassionate care, beauty and reverence. The
dynamic or "prescriptive" delivery of the
music has been found to assist with pain, anxiety, grief and
unresolved issues and concerns in a way that is supportive,
peaceful and non-invasive.
