Safety Tips for Seniors During Summer
It's crucial to protect seniors from the
scorching heat of the sun. As temperature rises,
it becomes challenging for older adults to bear
the heat, making them susceptible to dehydration
and heat-related health issues.
Karmabhumi Elderly Care Services in Dadar help
provide tips for seniors to stay safe in summer.

Keep your loved ones safe and comfortable
throughout this sun-socked season by following
these tips. Stay hydrated During hot summer
days, it's necessary to stay hydrated. Too much
heat is riskier for older individuals or the ones
who have health problems. Increase the intake of
water, herbal teas, and fruit juices. Dress up
according to the heat It's recommended to wear
lightweight, loose-fitting clothing in breathable
fabrics. Cotton or linen is preferable for older
adults. Light-colored clothes are the best to
wear in summer. Add sunglasses and hats with
wide-brim for added protection. Stay in the
shade Try to stay in shaded areas when heading
outdoors. Plan outings or any other activity
either in the morning or late afternoons when
it's cooler and more comfortable.

Timely medications It's essential to monitor
medications as they may increase sensitivity to
heat or further affect the body's ability to
regulate temperature. Consult with your loved
ones' doctor about the potential side effects
related to heat. Take cool showers A refreshing
bath can do wonders and provide instant relief
from the heat. You can also apply clean flannel
soaked in cool water to the skin which helps cool
a person down. If you want to give extra care to
your elderly individual connect with
Karmabhumi caretaker services in Dadar and get
help in the best possible manner from the team's
side.
