The healing music

Ersta Kulturscen wants to highlight the power of culture to promote health and well-being, in line with Ersta diakoni’s core values: to see the whole human being.

With the project The Healing Music, Ersta diakoni integrates live music into health and care environments. By offering high-quality musical experiences to patients, relatives and staff, the project aims to improve the quality of life and create a warmer and more humane atmosphere. Ersta Diakoni also hopes to inspire other organisations to make culture a natural part of care.

new working methods

”Thanks to the support from Signatur, we can now reach out to more parts of our organisation – and to more people. The project also gives us the opportunity to develop new working methods to make culture accessible in health and social care.”
