The beauty in summer isn’t just the sunshine: it’s the small rituals that come with it. A porch chat at dusk. Iced tea in a favorite glass. A breeze through the open window.

But for older adults, summer also brings safety risks that can turn those beautiful moments into dangerous ones.

At FirstLight, we help seniors enjoy summer safely, so those small moments stay sweet, not stressful.

Often, the hardest part about finding home care is just figuring out how to bring it up with your loved one.

Luckily, you don’t have to do it alone. At FirstLight, we’re here to make sure everyone feels comfortable and confident about care before moving forward.

Here are a few of our top tips to get the discussion started:
1. Have the conversation in an environment that’s comfortable for your loved one.
2. Use I statements to share what you’ve noticed and why you believe home care can help.
3. Ask open-ended questions to learn about their perspective.
4. Be empathetic. Validate their feelings so your loved one feels heard.
5. Address their concerns. Show you’re committed to ensuring their needs are met.

Seated exercises can be a great tool to help seniors more comfortably improve their strength and balance.

New to seated workouts? Give these a try. Aim for 3 sets of 10 repetitions for each exercise. For an additional challenge, consider adding ankle weights.

Abstaining from alcohol can come with a whole host of health benefits, especially for seniors—but that shouldn’t mean they have to feel like they’re missing out.

Whether your loved one is just trying Dry January or cutting alcohol out entirely, having zero-proof drink options that still feel festive can ease the transition and ensure everyone feels included.

Give this mocktail recipe a try at your next celebration. If desired, add a pinch of edible glitter to bottom of glass. Add the cranberry juice and simple syrup (if using). Top with sparkling tea and garnish with an orange wheel.

Winter weather can pose hidden risks for seniors, even in areas with mild climates. Aging affects how the body senses temperature, making it easier for older adults to become dangerously cold without noticing.
