Senatobia friends — quick winter reminder: seniors can get cold faster, even indoors. Here are a few simple ways to help your loved ones stay warm and comfortable during cold snaps:
✅ Dress in layers (a light base layer + sweater beats one heavy coat indoors)
✅ Warm socks + slippers to keep heat from escaping through the feet
✅ Keep the thermostat steady — avoid big dips at night if possible
✅ Cozy up the bed with flannel sheets, an extra blanket, or a heated throw (with safe use!)
✅ Warm meals + hot drinks (soups, oatmeal, tea, cocoa) help from the inside out
✅ Block drafts — door draft stoppers and closed curtains make a big difference
✅ Move a little — gentle stretching or a short walk around the house helps circulation
✅ Watch for “too cold” signs (shivering, confusion, pale skin, sleepiness)
If you’re caring for a senior this winter, a few small tweaks can make a big comfort difference. ❤️
