Summer Tips for Seniors to Stay Safe and Active

As summer arrives, it’s a great time to enjoy the outdoors and stay active. Here are some tips to ensure a safe and fun season:

  • Stay hydrated and drink plenty of water to prevent dehydration.

  • Dress and wear lightweight clothing, wear a hat and sunglasses to stay cool and protect against the sun.

  • Choose cooler times to engage in outdoor activities to avoid the peak heat.

  • Stay active with low-impact exercises or gardening that can keep you active and connected with nature.

  • Use air conditioning and fans and visit air-conditioned places such as the library if needed.

  • Consult your doctor or healthcare provider about any medications that may increase sensitivity to sun and heat.

  • Keep in touch with family, friends, or caregivers to ensure someone is aware of your well-being.

By following these simple tips, seniors can enjoy a safe, active, and enjoyable summer.
