  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. ...

Aging and the changes that come with it can affect nutrition and health in many ways. Reduced Energy Requirements – With age, our metabolism slows down due to which we need to eat less and consume fewer calories. Moreover, as elders are less active it can lead to loss of muscle mass and decline of basic nutrition needs. Thus, nutrition for elderly people has to be adjusted according to their activity level and to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Decreased Senses and Appetite – As we get older, we might have a reduced sense of smell and taste. It can also cause a loss of appetite because they tend to eat less when they can’t taste their food and enjoy it like they used to. Chronic Medical Condition – There are a lot of dietary factors that can also lead to high blood pressure, glucose intolerance, and other secondary factors such as stroke or heart attack. Improper nutrition can also cause diabetes and osteoporosis, especially when their daily requirements are not met. Medicati...

Lifestyle Modifications: A senior’s lifestyle is limited physically and financially. Incorporating wellness and healthy habit-forming goals to ensure that they are capable of looking after themselves and improve their health like exercise, de- stressing activities , social time, ‘ME’ time, etc. Positivity: It is important to stay positive and have patience when helping seniors form and learn new habits. They are used to having a particular life and activity routine which will definitely take time to change and adapt to new habits. Habits: Creating a chain of tasks to do with correlation to their daily routine like walks, television time, phone calls, etc like regularly checking blood pressure and blood sugar before morning tea creates an association for them that they can remember and will become a habit. Most habits take a few weeks to months to become firmly implanted in their minds and routine and one after the other, new correlations can be added, making it easier for them. ...
