Music & Health Ireland
Music & Health Ireland leads the field of music and health practice in Ireland. Their team of musicians are trained in best-practice musical and pedagogical techniques specifically developed for quality outcomes in healthcare. The methodology and approach used is consciously grounded in cultural interactions rather than clinical goals.
Music & Health Ireland manages and delivers the largest programme of training and CPD opportunities for early career musicians and healthcare staff interested in working and engaging through music in Healthcare and Community Settings across Ireland.
The organisation carries out projects with professional musicians specifically trained to work in healthcare settings. Their work is based on interaction and communication in a person-centred approach and includes families and care staff. Between the delivery of many diverse projects and professional training with European leaders Musique et Santé, Music & Health Ireland brings a wide range of experience and skills to this learning opportunity.
