workers, rehabilitation centers, nurse registries, and home
health agencies throughout Florida, American Home Companions
makes life easier for you.

If you, an elderly
loved one, or your parents have reached the time in life
when they need a little extra care, and you don’t want them
to live alone or in an institution such as an assisted
living facility or nursing home, that’s the time when
American Home Companions can help.

Should full home
health nursing services or assisted living placement become
necessary, we can refer you to an appropriate agency.

Keeping Seniors Cool in the Hot Summer
Months
Hyperthermia
is a term for heat-related illnesses
including
heat stroke,
heat fatigue, heat syncope (sudden dizziness
after exercising in the heat), heat
exhaustion and heat cramps. Seniors are more
susceptible to these illnesses due to their
body’s diminishing ability to adequately
respond to the summer heat.
Risk Factors:
· Poor blood circulation and
sluggish sweat glands
· Heart, lung, kidney diseases or
illness causing fever
· High blood pressure
· Being overweight or underweight
· Drinking alcohol and/or being
dehydrated
Tips on How to Prevent Heat-Related
Illnesses:
· Get the senior out of the sun
and into an air-conditioned environment
· Offer fluids such as water or
juice
· Have senior bathe or sponge off
with cool water
· Have the senior lie down and/or
apply cool, wet cloths to wrists and neck |
