Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This study evaluates the effects of arts on the Montreal Museum's clients.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase

    Detailed Description

    Acting early in the process of weakening elders in order to keep them longer in good health and socially active is possible. During the past decade, museums have become involved in the care of patients by using art to improve their quality of life and well-being. Museums have, thus, emerged as new partners in public health. Very few programs developed by museums have focused on elders. Only one focused on elders in situation of early frailty and demonstrated that it was possible, through participatory visual art-based activities, to improve the health status of elders living at home.
