“Music really is key to keeping people happy here. Some days we just play music and don’t turn movies on at all.”
Natalie Ram, Activity Coordinator
CityBridge Laguna Honda has brought music to brighten the spirits of those in long-term care and skilled nursing care facilities such as Laguna Honda Hospital. Here are few examples of what we’ve funded.
Live Music Performances
We believe that music is part of life. That is why CityBridge Laguna Honda wants to bring performers to entertain the elderly and disabled where they reside.
When possible, CityBridge Laguna Honda brings live music to long-term care and skilled nursing care facilities such as Laguna Honda Hospital. For the elderly and disabled who are bed-bound, having a live performer play classical, jazz, and/or traditional cultural songs is simply magical.
Over the years, we have funded:
Electronic pianos and karaoke machines
This gives people the chance to make their own kind of music.
Electronic jukeboxes
The access to familiar songs and new music encourages sharing memories and making new ones.
Spotify
When COVID-19 emerged, options for recreation and socializing were suddenly restricted. CityBridge stepped in quickly. Spotify accounts were funded and distributed, bringing a flow of personalized music to each of Laguna Honda’s 760 residents.
