This power strip will charge 13 iPods simultaneously, a real time and space saver.
Each resident will have a customized playlist on their iPod shuffle. This amount will allow Carmel Manor to purchase about 20 songs to add to their library from which staff will create the resident's playlist.
In this Music Therapy program, each patient receiving therapy would have his/her own personal iPod shuffle. This is customized for that person and is always available to the resident can be receiving therapy at all hours.
The cost per patient receiving music therapy through this certification is about $80. This amount covers everything needed for that patient including the iPod, headset, charger, and music.
To maintain the certification and keep training up to date, there is a annual renewal fee of $200 each year.
A donation of a $1,000 would cover the cost for the initial certification and training per nursing home and the staff.
