Author: Denise Roskamp
Here are some senior care basics to keep them safe from communicable diseases:
Encourage proper hand hygiene: Remind seniors to wash their hands frequently with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially before eating or touching their face.
Practice social distancing: If attending gatherings, advise them to maintain a safe distance from others and avoid crowded places to reduce the risk of exposure to illnesses.
Wear masks in public: Encourage the use of masks in public settings where social distancing may be challenging to protect themselves and others.
Ensure food safety: Remind them to follow proper food handling and cooking practices to prevent foodborne illnesses.
Stay informed: Keep them informed about the latest health guidelines and encourage them to stay updated on the COVID-19 situation in our community.
Let's celebrate Independence Day responsibly and keep our seniors healthy and safe! #July4th #SeniorSafety #HomeHelpersNashua
