Abstract: transition of care is defined as the set of instructions designed to ensure co-ordination and continuity of the health care to the patient. It should be based on the comprehensive care plan and availability of well-trained practitioners who have a complete knowledge of patients' preferences and treatment goals, care plan and clinical status. It was initiated with an aim to justify the medical investments of the patients and also make the health care affordable by all sectors of the public. Though the practice of transition of care is carried out in various countries and the results are vividly better in certain diseases like diabetes and nephrology, still in india, we do not come across any hospital or community settings that apply transition of care concept.

Abstract: The increment of the worldwide population of older adults encourages governments and private institutions to find non-pharmacological and ecological interventions with positive effects for this population. Research studies suggest positive effects of artistic activities. Considering music-making from the perspective of positive psychology, Dalcroze Eurhythmics (DE) focuses on the cognitive, affective, social, and physical domains. During sessions, the participants listen, feel, and express music through body movements. Activities are based on improvisation, coordination, auditory discrimination, and musical expression.
