โ๏ธ Beating the August Heat โ Tips from JanCare Private Home Care Agency ๐ก
Summer is in full swing, and August heat can be toughโespecially for older adults and those with health concerns. At JanCare, weโre committed to keeping our clients safe, cool, and comfortable. ๐ง๐ง
Here are a few home careโapproved tips for staying cool and hydrated:
๐ง Hydration is key โ Our caregivers make sure clients are drinking water regularly. Add a splash of lemon or cucumber for a refreshing boost!
๐ง Keep it cool inside โ Fans, A/C, and shaded curtains help maintain a safe indoor temperature. We check daily to ensure comfort.
๐ Smart snacks โ Light, water-rich foods like watermelon, yogurt, and popsicles keep hydration up and meals enjoyable.
๐งข Dress for the weather โ We help clients wear breathable, light-colored clothing and wide-brimmed hats if going outside.
๐ Look for signs of heat stress โ We stay alert to signs of dehydration, fatigue, or dizziness and act fast if something seems off.
Your loved ones deserve quality care year-roundโespecially when the temperatures rise. ๐
Stay safe and stay cool!
