🌞 Beat the Heat: Summer Safety Tips for Seniors! 🌞

At Sandra’s Home Health Care, we care deeply about our seniors’ well-being — especially during the hot summer months! 🔥

Older adults are more vulnerable to heat stroke and dehydration, so here are a few important tips to stay safe:

💧 Stay Hydrated – Drink plenty of water throughout the day, even if you’re not thirsty. Avoid sugary or alcoholic drinks.

🏡 Stay Cool Indoors – Make sure your home or care environment is well-ventilated and air-conditioned when possible. Fans alone aren’t enough during extreme heat.

👕 Dress for the Weather – Light, loose-fitting clothing and a wide-brimmed hat can make a big difference.

🚨 Watch for Warning Signs – Dizziness, headache, rapid pulse, or confusion can all be signs of heat stroke. Act fast and seek help if these symptoms appear.

✅ Choosing the Right Home Care Matters
Having reliable caregivers who monitor hydration, environment, and comfort can make all the difference. At Sandra’s Home Health Care, we’re here to support your loved ones every step of the way with compassionate, professional care.

💙 Call us today to learn how we can help keep your loved ones safe and cared for — all year round.

At Sandra’s Home Health Care, we believe every senior deserves to live with independence, purpose, and respect. 💚

Aging with dignity means honoring your independence, self-worth, and unique journey. These simple strategies help ensure every chapter of life is filled with confidence, joy, and respect.

✅ Make Your Own Choices
Your preferences matter. Stay involved in decisions about your daily life and care.
✅ Stay Socially Connected
Meaningful relationships bring comfort and joy. Reach out, share stories, and spend time with those who lift you up.
✅ Engage in What You Love
Whether it’s gardening, reading, music, or crafting—hobbies nourish your soul and keep life fulfilling.
✅ Care for Mind and Body
Eat well, stay active, and rest when needed. Mental and physical wellness go hand in hand.

Your voice is powerful. Embrace your individuality and never stop sharing who you are.

Because dignity never grows old. 💫

🌹 Help Us Support Maulene Dixon and Her Family 🌹

It is with heavy hearts that we share the devastating news of the passing of Shaylene Blouin, the step daughter of one of our very own caregivers, Maulene Dixon.

On July 1st, 2025, Shaylene tragically lost her life in a highway accident near Edmonton, Alberta, along with her partner, their dog, and the unborn child she was carrying. Shaylene was only 29 years old, and her loss has left a deep void in the hearts of her family, friends, and all who knew her.

This is the fourth loss in Maulene's family in the past few years, and the family is now facing the unimaginable financial burden of arranging travel and memorial expenses. We are reaching out to ask for your support.

We’ve set up a GoFundMe campaign to help cover travel and memorial costs for the family during this incredibly difficult time. If you can contribute, it would mean the world to Maulene and her loved ones. If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this post to help us spread the word.

👉 Please consider donating here: https://gofund.me/2b2939e7

Every little bit helps, and your support will provide much-needed relief and peace of mind during a time of unimaginable grief. Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and for helping us show Maulene and her family that they are not alone.

With gratitude,
Sandra’s Home Health Care Team

🙏 Rest in peace, Shaylene. You will always be remembered and loved. 🤍

✅ Licensed. Trusted. Compliant. ✅

Choosing a licensed home care agency isn’t just a smart decision — it’s now the law in Ontario.

At Sandra’s Home Health Care, we’re proud to be fully licensed under the Employment Standards Act, 2000 (ESA) — meeting all the legal requirements to provide safe, trustworthy care.

⚠️ While unlicensed agencies may seem cheaper, the risks are higher:

- No oversight or accountability
- Unqualified or undertrained staff
- No legal protection for clients or workers
- Potential fines for using unlicensed services

💡 You get what you pay for — and when it comes to caring for your loved ones, cutting corners isn’t worth the risk.

💙 We’re committed to delivering quality, safe, and legally compliant care — at fair, transparent prices.

Don’t just hire help. Hire care you can trust.
