People living with memory loss face greater challenges than most of us. Being unable to remember life

As temperatures rise, it's essential for seniors to stay cool and comfortable. Here are a few tips to help older adults beat the heat:
Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Proper hydration is crucial for seniors to prevent dehydration and heat-related illnesses.
Dress Appropriately: Choose lightweight, breathable clothing in light colors. Loose-fitting attire can help you stay cool and comfortable.
Use Fans or Air Conditioning: Keep your living spaces cool with fans or air conditioning. Avoid overheating by staying in air-conditioned rooms during the hottest parts of the day.
Stay Indoors During Peak Heat: Limit outdoor activities when the sun is at its strongest, typically around 4 p.m. If you need to go outside, try to do so early in the morning or later in the evening.
Cool Showers or Baths: Taking cool showers or baths can help lower your body temperature and provide much-needed relief from the heat.
Check on Loved Ones: Stay in touch with elderly friends and family members. Ensure they are staying cool, hydrated, and safe during the hot weather.
Stay Safe and Beat the Heat This Summer!
