  KEEPINGS SENIORS SAFE IN SUMMERS Summers can be an enjoyable weather for seniors where they can let their guards down and indulge in outdoor activities that can be relaxing for them. It is the best weather to enjoy a day at the beach or a picnic at the park with friends. While getting some essential vitamin D from the sun is important, with seniors there are always some risks involved. Keeping in mind their independence and their safety, here are some tips to keep in check before they leave home! Skin Care – Sun is without doubt the best natural source of vitamin D, but exposure to sun can take a toll on their skin. With age, their skin has become thin and delicate and sunburn is a cause of concern. When going outdoors, they should always use a sunscreen having at least 30 SPF or higher to prevent sunburns and heat marks. Comfortable Clothing – Summers mean wearing as less clothes as possible and yet keeping safe from suntans and sunburns, but feeling at ease and comfortable. ...

Tips for Seasonal Affective Disorder - Curodoc Healthcare

-

 You must have heard people complain of “winter blues” or feeling low, sad, and down during the winter months. These are not just mood swings, there are phases of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) which is basically depression that is brought on by the change in weather and the onset of colder weather. This is a common occurring in the seniors as well as middle aged individuals.

Signs may include:

  • Feeling depressed for most part of the day, nearly every day
  • Loss of interest in activities you once enjoyed
  • Sleep pattern changes
  • Changes in food habits, appetite, and weight
  • Feeling easily agitated
  • Feeling hopeless and frequently having negative thoughts
  • Feeling tired and having low energy



Reasons for SAD: There is no specific cause for the “winter blues”, but it is partially due to the decrease in the sunlight level which causes an imbalance in the body’s internal clock.

 SAD causes a drastic change in the mood and behavior of a person and here are some tips to care for such a person:

  1. A companion is the best partner. Winter itself sets in a feeling of loneliness, and having a companion at that time who can just spend time talking, watching TV, or even just sitting with you can be of a lot of help. If you stay alone, getting a caregiver to come over for a few hours every day can be helpful and help improve mood.
  2. Catching a few hours of sunlight can help improve mind health. Spending time outdoors during the early hours or completing your routine market runs in the morning hours when the sun is the brightest can improve mood. If you cannot go out, sitting indoors by a window which is letting some sunlight in can also help.
  3. Do exercises for at least 30 minutes a day. This helps to keep the blood circulating and joints moving well. If you cannot do the exercises by yourself, getting a home physiotherapist to assist and help workout is also a good idea.

Home Nursing Services in Delh i Occupying the home nursing services in Delhi and also in other places has become one of the most comfortable and convenient ways to look after your loving people. Being supremely engaged in work it turns out to be very stressful and hectic for a person to maintain a balance between his/her professional and personal life. Hence, when someone in your family, friends or mates falls sick it is better to have the service of nursing care at home rather than sending them to the hospital.
