Song can accompany an individual throughout life development, indeed becoming autobiographical in nature. As such, song is a powerful tool to apply when working with medical patients, whether the goal is the development of healthy coping skills, self-expression, pain management, sense of control, social connectivity, fostering of communication or parent/child bonding. This experiential course will explore various methods within the use of songs including song writing, song improvisation, song gifts, theme songs, songs of kin, and song affirmations; these will be highlighted by concise case examples. Furthermore, clinical and musical decisions leading to success in implementing songs with medical patients will be covered. In order to provide participants with an opportunity to practice and gain comfort level with these techniques, participants will be paired to practice covered material.
