Active Care Homes through the Arts Scale Up

“艺乐安老院”（暂定名）旨在透过数码艺术内容，以及为护理院人员提供培训和支援，提高安老院居民的活动水平。护理院居民的活动水平通常很低，一天中的大部分时间都可以完全坐着度过。我们希望将电视的地位转变为一种积极的工具，通过为养老院居民量身定制的高质量艺术内容、活动和表演来增加活动和参与度。积极护理之家由一个跨艺术，数字包容和健康与福祉的多学科团队提供。伯恩茅斯交响乐团及其合作伙伴，Wellmoor，行动中的村庄，开放大学数字健康实验室和舞蹈专家克莱尔·帕克（Clare Parker）借鉴了数十年在养老院（亲自和数字）提供互动和参与性舞蹈和音乐的经验。自2022年3月以来，我们一直在进行可行性研究，以测试数字运动和音乐内容，资源和员工培训，试用影响测量量表并制定我们的商业计划。这个项目将从我们的可行性研究中学习，并将我们的数字运动和音乐内容的研究和开发扩大到更多的养老院。它将测试由整合数字影响工具的影响框架支撑的内容周期、可访问性和参与模式。通过艺术活动，活跃护理院将为护理院的工作人员和居民提供基于证据的核心力量和平衡练习的运动活动，以及与他们的居民一起提供这些活动的信心。它将开发引人入胜的社交音乐和艺术内容，并创建一个可扩展的解决方案，以支持养老院成为更活跃、更健康的地方。

Active Care Homes through the Arts (working title) aims to increase the activity levels of care home residents through engaging digital arts content, and training and support for care staff.Activity levels for residents in care homes are typically low and much of the day can be spent entirely sedentary. We want to turn the place of TV on its head, into a positive tool to increase activity and engagement through high quality arts content, events and performances tailored for care home residents.Active Care Homes is delivered by a multi-disciplinary team spanning arts, digital inclusion, and health & wellbeing. Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra and partners, Wellmoor, Villages in Action, Open University Digital Health Labs and dance specialist, Clare Parker, draw on decades of experience delivering interactive and participatory dance and music in care homes (in person and digitally).Since Mar 2022 we have been undertaking a feasibility study to test digital movement and music content, resources and staff training, trial impact measurement scales and develop our business plan.This project will take the learning from our feasibility study and scale up the research and development of our digital movement and music content with a wider group of care homes. It will test content cycles, accessibility and engagement patterns underpinned by an impact framework integrating digital impact tools.Active Care Homes through the Arts will give care home staff and residents engaging movement activities which draw on evidence-based core strength & balance exercises, and the confidence to deliver this with their residents. It will develop engaging, social music and arts content and create a scalable solution which will support care homes to be more active and healthy places.
