Winter ❄️ can be particularly challenging for elderly and vulnerable individuals, but a few simple steps can make a big difference in staying safe, warm, and well.
Make sure your home is heated to a comfortable temperature and try to keep one main living area warm throughout the day. Layer your clothing, enjoy warm meals and drinks, and stay active indoors where possible to help maintain circulation. Don’t forget to check weather forecasts, avoid unnecessary trips in icy conditions, and keep essential supplies stocked.
Most importantly, stay connected. A regular phone call 📞, visit from a loved one, or support from a trusted care provider can help prevent isolation and ensure help is available if needed.
