It’s hot out there again! 🌞
And while we’re all reaching for iced drinks and fans, older adults need a little extra care to stay safe in the summer heat🌞
Here’s your caregiver-approved summer safety toolkit for aging loved ones:
💧 Hydrate with variety – Water is essential, but try chilled fruit, herbal iced tea, smoothies, or even ice lollies to keep it fun and refreshing.
👒 Dress – Light, breathable clothing and wide-brimmed hats help regulate temperature and protect sensitive skin.
🌬️ Cool it down – If there’s no AC, use fans, cold washcloths, or even a bowl of cool water for hands and wrists to provide quick relief.
🌿 Time outdoor activities wisely – Early mornings or evenings are safest. A short stroll, porch chat, or birdwatching can bring joy without overheating.
👂 Connect with care – Sometimes, just being present — listening, sharing a memory, or sitting together — is the best form of comfort.
Let’s keep our older adults safe, seen and supported this summer.
