After the ICARE Foundation’s successful 2022 Giving Tuesday Crowdfunding Campaign, the Healing2Music Program was officially launched in February 2023. Each month, a different one-hour music performance takes place in the St. John’s Episcopal Hospital lobby, bringing the healing power of music to patients,
their families, and team members.
A lot has been said about the healing power of music by famous authors, thinkers, performing artists and neuroscientists. In fact, the right music has the power to heal, to cleanse, and to uplift your entire being.
Research shows that music can help:
- Manage stress
- Improve blood pressure
- Alleviate pain and improve pain tolerance
- Improve outlook and overall mood
By supporting this program, you help us create an environment that provides better person-centered experiences and healthcare outcomes!
The annual operating cost for this program amounts to $12,000. For those interested in underwriting all or a portion of this initiative, please reach out to Executive Director Nancy Leghart at nleghart@ehs.org.
