  the fear of flu and its symptoms. As far as
  seniors are concerned, it becomes essential for
  both, elderly and their caregivers to follow some
  preventive measures.Without a doubt seniors are
  at greater risk of flu and infections during
  winter months. This means if you are the family
  caregiver for a senior loved one, cold season is
  going to bring some serious challenges.To deal
  with this tough season of the year, you need to
  take a proactive approach. Here are some easy
  tips to follow that can be helpful in fighting
  the flu season.

Proper Nourishment

• As they get older, many seniors end up eating
  less, and this often results in their bodies not
  being able to fight off illness. Make sure that
  they have a well-balanced diet with plenty of
  fruits and vegetables. You can also consider
  supplements with daily vitamins.

Maintain Cleanliness

• This is the first step to stopping the cold
  and flu viruses from spread. Use disinfecting
  cleaners to keep the germs at bay. From their
  clothes to linens and towels, everything needs to
  be washed regularly, keeping germ control in
  consideration

Resist Visitors

• It is mentally healthy for seniors to spend
  time with friends and family, but when it comes
  to physical health, you might have to control the
  visitors going in and out of the home. During
  cold and flu season, more visitors can be an open
  invitation for germs. Especially, if the visitors
  are experiencing headaches, fever, cough, or a
  runny nose, ask them to reschedule their visit
  for when they are feeling better.

Being Active is Key

• You need to pay attention to their regular
  physical activity. It is important for
  maintaining a strong immune system. Plus, it will
  encourage their body to fight off impending
  infections. Motivate elderly to take a daily walk
  around the block, or spend some time at the gym.

Rest is Vital

• A few sleepless nights can cause severe
  problem. Encourage your seniors to get more rest.

  body.
