Gift of piano strengthens assisted living community’s musical programming (Fayetteville, North Carolina)—According to the Alzheimer’s Association, music can have a positive impact on individuals with Alzheimer’s disease and dementia. With that in mind, The Carolina Inn has enhanced its musical programming.
