Summer Safety Tips for Seniors

May 24, 2022

Don't Let The Heat Take A Toll On You.

Did you know older people are more susceptible to heat-related illnesses and injury? As we age, our body becomes less efficient at regulating temperature and is unable to generate as much sweat as much as it used to. Here are some safety tips for you

Since sweat is the body’s most important heat-regulating mechanism, this can be problematic in the summer because when the outside temperature rises, so does the body’s internal temperature. This is why older people suffer from heatstroke in the summer more often than younger people.

Enjoying the summer safely is important. Here are some ideas to stay healthy in the rising temperatures of the summer months.

Additionally, be sure you know the side effects of your prescriptions. Some medications can cause increased sensitivity to the sun. Look over your medications and talk with your doctor about any concerns or questions you have.

Also, remember to maintain communication with friends, family, caregivers and emergency contacts. Keep a list of emergency phone numbers and place them in an easy-to-access area in case needed.
