Right at Home

It&#8217;s always a good idea to keep tabs on our loved ones, but it&#8217;s especially important to make sure seniors are cared for during the dog days of summer.Michael Manes, CEO of <a href="http://www.rightathomefranchise.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=wdtn-tv-checking-on-seniors-in-the-summer-2002" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Right at Home</a> Dayton, spoke with WDTN-TV offering tips to help families keep their elderly loved ones safe this season.&#8220;Any senior with any type of memory issues, dementia or anything like that, you have to take precautions and do some very basic things to make sure they don&#8217;t succumb to heat exhaustion or worse,&#8221; Manes told WDTN-TV. Some basic tips include checking the environment in which seniors are living. Manes explained that some seniors like to keep the temperature of their house warm, so it&#8217;s important to keep an eye on seniors&#8217; living conditions and that air conditioning units are functioning properly. Also, it&#8217;s important to keep medications out of direct sunlight.&#8220;Some dementia medications may be sensitive to the sun,&#8221; Manes said.&#8220;Also, a senior can also get dehydrated quicker than you or I. You have to keep an eye out for that. A lot of seniors like to drink coffee which may dehydrate them, so try to limit them to one cup of coffee and have them drink plenty of water.&#8221; Click <a href="http://wdtn.com/2015/06/30/checking-on-seniors-in-the-summer/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=wdtn-tv-checking-on-seniors-in-the-summer-2002" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">here</a> to view the segment.
