Having surgery causes anxiety in most people. Just the thought of having surgery can induce feelings of helplessness and fear that are completely understandable. Having surgery means that there is a problem, something is not right. Even elective surgery, like cosmetic surgery, causes considerable anxiety. Patients experiencing anxiety related to upcoming medical/dental procedures want to avoid chemicals and the risk of addiction or negative side-effects. Some people are extremely sensitive to anesthesia. Perhaps they’ve already had a negative reaction to anesthesia but have been informed that they must have surgery for very valid reasons.
Medical facilities want to help patients feel less anxious
How can physicians and medical facilities help patients feel less anxious and perhaps reduce the need for anxiety medication?
A great deal of research has shown that the right kind of music can reduce anxiety and pain perception. Also, when patients are provided this music, it increases patient satisfaction with the medical procedure. Patients report that when using this music, “it made all the difference!” As you can imagine, this is a great benefit to doctors and medical facilities as well.
Hospitals have used music therapists to help patients 1:1 but music therapy can be an expensive solution. Instead, it is possible to offer patients specially chosen therapeutic music to be listened to through headphones or earbuds. This provides an inexpensive and easily scalable option.
The legal problem with streaming music to patients
There’s a legal issue about streaming music to patients. Years ago, hospitals and other medical facilities could just stream Pandora or Spotify playlists. As of January 1, 2019, medical facilities now must have a healthcare facility license and that costs money. We have a solution for that. Our solution provides licenses for our scientifically curated therapeutic music that can be legally streamed to patients and provide the desired results. Our proprietary music is available to download onto a smart device, either mobile phone or tablet.
Surgical Serenity Solutions has an app for that
Hospitals and other medical/dental facilities can license these playlists easily and use them legally with our Complete Hospital Kit which includes:
- Bose bluetooth headphones
- A mobile tablet loaded with all five surgical playlists
- A one-year license for this music
- Two bags of disposable earphone covers so that headphones can be reused between patients with a simple wipe-down
Press Play to view an animation of the Complete Hospital Kit.
Here’s how it works:
- Download the app for free
- Sample each playlist and choose the lists you’d like to license
- Go to our license request page
