What adaptations should the elderly make to prepare for the winter?
Are you ready for the winter? Here are a few things to keep in mind:
● Stock up and stay safe!
Be sure to fill up your pantry and freezer to prevent unnecessary trips to the store
● Order in!
We all forget things or have a random craving here and there; have it delivered and stay warm.
● Put down that shovel!
Ask a neighbor or relative to clear a path for you and the mailman
● Stay in the light!
Be sure to keep plenty of flashlights and batteries handy
● Shots, shots, shots!
Make sure you have the most up to date vaccine(s) and flu shot
● Stay Sudsy!
Wash your hands as often as possible
● Nap like a champion!
Make sure you get plenty of rest
● Stay warm!
Our bodies find it harder to stay warm as we get older. Dress up with extra layers. Be sure to check your furnace in the fall
● Mo’ money, less problems!
Be on the lookout for any monetary assistance in your area
