the society feel unloved and neglected at this phase of their lives Their
deteriorating physical strength and other geriatric illnesses add to their
difficulties Their often poor financial condition lack of affordable
health care and the general neglect by society has propelled

Genesis
Old age is an inevitable stage of life Its arrival causes great anxiety
and apprehension about mental and physical deterioration as well as
dependency But it can be especially difficult for those unfortunate
elderly who are left with neither financial support nor family For the

utter misery
In the prevailing circumstances Samutkarsh Aashrya will provide you
With a safe and rewarding lifestyle in a residence they are proud to
call home Complete spectrum of seniors housing - from Independent
Living to Retirement Homes to full-serviced long-term care facilities
to help todays seniors through all phases of their retirement years till
death
This project envisages to help elders rebuild their own lives and take
charge of their own future restoring within them a sense of self
worth and confidence

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

RECOMMENDED DIETARY ALLOWANCES

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

bracket With improved life expectancy rate in our country itrsquos
estimated that as many as 8 million people are currently above the
age of 80 years Changing family value system economic compulsions
of the children neglect and abuse has caused elders to fall through
the net of family care Homes for the Aged are ideal for elderly people
who are alone face health problems depression and loneliness
RK Foundationrsquos initiative through Samutkarsh Aashray has extended
financial support for infrastructure development and providing assistive
devices to nearly all senior citizens who are alone and face health
problems with all basic facilities The key features and contact details of
these Homes available on Raadheykrishnaagroupinhellip

the society feel unloved and neglected at this phase of their lives Their
deteriorating physical strength and other geriatric illnesses add to their
difficulties Their often poor financial condition lack of affordable
health care and the general neglect by society has propelled

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

RECOMMENDED DIETARY ALLOWANCES
Energy 1976 kcal
Protein 60 g
Calcium 400 mg
Thiamine 10 mg
Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

Overview
At present 95 million people in India are above the age of 60 by the
year 2025 nearly 80 million more will be added to this population
bracket With improved life expectancy rate in our country itrsquos
estimated that as many as 8 million people are currently above the
age of 80 years Changing family value system economic compulsions
of the children neglect and abuse has caused elders to fall through
the net of family care Homes for the Aged are ideal for elderly people
who are alone face health problems depression and loneliness
RK Foundationrsquos initiative through Samutkarsh Aashray has extended
financial support for infrastructure development and providing assistive
devices to nearly all senior citizens who are alone and face health

India is today home to 100 million senior citizens The pity is that

of our people and shifted their socio-economic priorities Sons and
daughters and their children find no time for the senior citizens in their
family The elderly who have provided their services and support to
the society feel unloved and neglected at this phase of their lives Their
deteriorating physical strength and other geriatric illnesses add to their
difficulties Their often poor financial condition lack of affordable
health care and the general neglect by society has propelled
Samutkarsh Aashray an RK Foundation initiative to step in and bring in
elder welfare programs and advocate for elder friendly policies

Genesis
Old age is an inevitable stage of life Its arrival causes great anxiety
and apprehension about mental and physical deterioration as well as
dependency But it can be especially difficult for those unfortunate
elderly who are left with neither financial support nor family For the

utter misery
In the prevailing circumstances Samutkarsh Aashrya will provide you
With a safe and rewarding lifestyle in a residence they are proud to
call home Complete spectrum of seniors housing - from Independent
Living to Retirement Homes to full-serviced long-term care facilities
to help todays seniors through all phases of their retirement years till
death
This project envisages to help elders rebuild their own lives and take
charge of their own future restoring within them a sense of self
worth and confidence

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses
Here at lsquoSAMUTKARSH AASHRAYrsquo we have a vast garden keeping
in mind all the above requirements to keep our elders entertain
themselves and fulfill their hobbies

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

age of 80 years Changing family value system economic compulsions
of the children neglect and abuse has caused elders to fall through
the net of family care Homes for the Aged are ideal for elderly people
who are alone face health problems depression and loneliness

financial support for infrastructure development and providing assistive
devices to nearly all senior citizens who are alone and face health

diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health

in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

daughters and their children find no time for the senior citizens in their
family The elderly who have provided their services and support to
the society feel unloved and neglected at this phase of their lives Their
deteriorating physical strength and other geriatric illnesses add to their
difficulties Their often poor financial condition lack of affordable
health care and the general neglect by society has propelled

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

RECOMMENDED DIETARY ALLOWANCES

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

Page | 56
garden
A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses
Here at lsquoSAMUTKARSH AASHRAYrsquo we have a vast garden keeping
in mind all the above requirements to keep our elders entertain
themselves and fulfill their hobbies

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

Old age is an inevitable stage of life Its arrival causes great anxiety

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Monsoon
The first water droplets of the monsoon make us relieved and joyous
This season can be a remedy of rashes we got due to prickly heat

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

RECOMMENDED DIETARY ALLOWANCES

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

nearby
Page | 56
garden
A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses
Here at lsquoSAMUTKARSH AASHRAYrsquo we have a vast garden keeping
in mind all the above requirements to keep our elders entertain
themselves and fulfill their hobbies

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health

in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

SPACIOUS ROOMS WITH TOILETS
Elderly people tend to wake up at nights several times for urination etc
This creates huge requirements for nearby availability of toilets which is
easily searchable in the dark
lsquoSamutkarsh Aashrayrsquo will be providing its esteemed members with
Spacious rooms with attached toilets to provide them with utmost relief
nearby

garden
A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses
Here at lsquoSAMUTKARSH AASHRAYrsquo we have a vast garden keeping
in mind all the above requirements to keep our elders entertain
themselves and fulfill their hobbies

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Monsoon

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

RECOMMENDED DIETARY ALLOWANCES

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

RECOMMENDED DIETARY ALLOWANCES

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

nearby
Page | 56
garden
A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses
Here at lsquoSAMUTKARSH AASHRAYrsquo we have a vast garden keeping
in mind all the above requirements to keep our elders entertain
themselves and fulfill their hobbies

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

RECOMMENDED DIETARY ALLOWANCES
Energy 1976 kcal

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

SPACIOUS ROOMS WITH TOILETS
Elderly people tend to wake up at nights several times for urination etc
This creates huge requirements for nearby availability of toilets which is
easily searchable in the dark
lsquoSamutkarsh Aashrayrsquo will be providing its esteemed members with
Spacious rooms with attached toilets to provide them with utmost relief
nearby

garden
A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses
Here at lsquoSAMUTKARSH AASHRAYrsquo we have a vast garden keeping
in mind all the above requirements to keep our elders entertain
themselves and fulfill their hobbies

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

RECOMMENDED DIETARY ALLOWANCES

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

Page | 56
garden
A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses
Here at lsquoSAMUTKARSH AASHRAYrsquo we have a vast garden keeping
in mind all the above requirements to keep our elders entertain
themselves and fulfill their hobbies

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

RECOMMENDED DIETARY ALLOWANCES

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

This creates huge requirements for nearby availability of toilets which is
easily searchable in the dark

nearby
Page | 56
garden
A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses
Here at lsquoSAMUTKARSH AASHRAYrsquo we have a vast garden keeping
in mind all the above requirements to keep our elders entertain
themselves and fulfill their hobbies

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

RECOMMENDED DIETARY ALLOWANCES
Energy 1976 kcal

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

SPACIOUS ROOMS WITH TOILETS
Elderly people tend to wake up at nights several times for urination etc
This creates huge requirements for nearby availability of toilets which is
easily searchable in the dark
lsquoSamutkarsh Aashrayrsquo will be providing its esteemed members with
Spacious rooms with attached toilets to provide them with utmost relief
nearby
Page | 56
garden
A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses
Here at lsquoSAMUTKARSH AASHRAYrsquo we have a vast garden keeping
in mind all the above requirements to keep our elders entertain
themselves and fulfill their hobbies

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Monsoon

monsoon with regards to the food we intake and the activities we
perform There are certain health risks we can suffer due to monsoon
Especially kids are very susceptible during monsoon This is the season
where waterborne bacteria can attack us and we can get reduction in
our immunity level Normally people suffer from indigestion allergies

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses
Here at lsquoSAMUTKARSH AASHRAYrsquo we have a vast garden keeping
in mind all the above requirements to keep our elders entertain
themselves and fulfill their hobbies

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Monsoon

monsoon with regards to the food we intake and the activities we
perform There are certain health risks we can suffer due to monsoon
Especially kids are very susceptible during monsoon This is the season
where waterborne bacteria can attack us and we can get reduction in
our immunity level Normally people suffer from indigestion allergies

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high

4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

RECOMMENDED DIETARY ALLOWANCES

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

RECOMMENDED DIETARY ALLOWANCES

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Monsoon
The first water droplets of the monsoon make us relieved and joyous
This season can be a remedy of rashes we got due to prickly heat

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

This creates huge requirements for nearby availability of toilets which is
easily searchable in the dark

nearby
Page | 56
garden
A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses
Here at lsquoSAMUTKARSH AASHRAYrsquo we have a vast garden keeping
in mind all the above requirements to keep our elders entertain
themselves and fulfill their hobbies

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

RECOMMENDED DIETARY ALLOWANCES

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

and Naturopathy Unani Siddha and Homoeopathy (AYUSH) there is a
5frac12-year degree in Bachelor of Naturopathy and Yogic Sciences (BNYS)
degree that was offered by twelve colleges in India as of August 2010
The National Institute of Naturopathy in Pune that operates under
AYUSH which was established on December 22 1986 and encourages
facilities for standardization and propagation of the existing knowledge
and its application through research in naturopathy throughout India
Naturopathy or naturopathic medicine is a form of alternative
medicine The term naturopathy means natural healing The
ideology and methods of naturopathy are based on vitalism and self-
healing rather than evidence-based medicine Naturopathic education
contains little of the established clinical training and curriculum by
doctors as naturopaths Naturopathy promotes a natural diet and
exercise with avoidance of tobacco and overwork Naturopaths deal
exclusively with lifestyle changes

areas to facilitate group study and collaboration Libraries often
provide public facilities for access to their electronic resources and the
Internet Modern libraries are increasingly being redefined as places to
get unrestricted access to information in many formats and from many
sources They are extending services beyond the physical walls of a
building by providing material accessible by electronic means and by
providing the assistance of librarians in navigating and analyzing very
large amounts of information with a variety of digital tools

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any
Page | 36
RECOMMENDED DIETARY ALLOWANCES
Energy 1976 kcal
Protein 60 g
Calcium 400 mg
Thiamine 10 mg
Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

1 HEALTH ndash The Biggest Wealth on Earth Health Care is the maintenance or improvement of health via the
diagnosis treatment andprevention of disease illness injury and
other physical and mental impairments in human beings Health
care is delivered by health professionals It includes the work done
in providing primary care secondary care and tertiary care Health
care is conventionally regarded as an important determinant in
promoting the general physical and mental health and well-being of
people
Adequate Nutrition and a well balanced diet is of vital importance in
Old age so as to prevent and control the common hazards of Aging
Many factors like poor income decreased mobility social isolation
and depression are known to affect the health and well being of the
Page | 33
elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any

RECOMMENDED DIETARY ALLOWANCES
Energy 1976 kcal
Protein 60 g
Calcium 400 mg
Thiamine 10 mg
Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

SPACIOUS ROOMS WITH TOILETS
Elderly people tend to wake up at nights several times for urination etc
This creates huge requirements for nearby availability of toilets which is
easily searchable in the dark

Spacious rooms with attached toilets to provide them with utmost relief
nearby

garden
A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses
Here at lsquoSAMUTKARSH AASHRAYrsquo we have a vast garden keeping
in mind all the above requirements to keep our elders entertain
themselves and fulfill their hobbies

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

elderly Under nutrition obesity diabetes cardiovascular diseases
and osteoporosis have been identified as the most important and
commonly prevalent nutrition related health problems in Old Age
2 DIET AND FEEDING PATTERN
Since good nutrition is of immense significance during old age care
should be taken that the diets of elderly are nutritionally adequate
and well balanced With the advancement of age the energy needs
are reduced as a result the total quantum of food intake is lowered
while the requirement of most of the other nutrients remains
unaltered Therefore it becomes all the more important to provide
adequate amounts of all the nutrients within the decreased energy
levels
Few factors to be kept in mind while planning balanced
meals for the elderly
bull Intake of energy rich foods like sweets fried or high fat foods
cereals and starches needs to be reduced while liberal amounts of
milk and milk products fresh fruits vegetables particularly green
leafy vegetables should be included to meet the vitamin and
mineral needs
bull An adequate intake of calcium in particular should be ensured
to compensate for its losses due to gradual demineralization of
bones associated with aging
Page | 34
bull Since sufficient exposure to sunlight is essential to meet the
bodys needs for vitamin D in case of elderly individuals confined to
bed suppliments of this vitamin need to be provided
bull Food rich in fats especially saturated fats should be avoided
and instead oils containing high levels of poly unsaturated fatty
acids such as sunflower oils soybean oil etc should be used to
prevent and control the condition of hypertension and other cardio-
vascular diseases
bull Intake of simple sugars should be reduced as these provide only
empty calories
bull Dietary fiber has a beneficial effect in various conditions
associated with aging such as constipation diabetes and
cardiovascular diseases adequate amount of food rich in dietary
fiber should be included in the diet
bull With the advancement of age the capacity to digest and
tolerate large meals often decreases Therefore the quantity of
food given at a time needs to be decreased If required number of
meals can be increased as per the individuals tolerance
bull Due to the loss of teeth particularly if dentures are not used
modifications in consistency needs to be done The diet should be
soft well cooked and should include foods that need little or no
mastication such as milk and milk products soft cooked eggs
tender meats gruels soft cooked vegetables grated salads fruit
juices soft fruits like banana or stewed fruits
Page | 35
bull The food for the elderly should be colorful attractive and tasty
and should be served in pleasant surroundings so as to arouse their
appetite and interest in the food
bull Apart from the diet the elderly are advised to continue with
their physical activity and light exercises to keep fit and prevent the
occurrence of diseases like arthritis gout and obesity Regular or
periodic health checkups and weight monitoring also helps in
physical fitness and early detection of complications if any
Page | 36
RECOMMENDED DIETARY ALLOWANCES
Energy 1976 kcal
Protein 60 g
Calcium 400 mg
Thiamine 10 mg
Keeping all the aspects in mind providing a proper diet to the old
will keep them free from most of the diseases and they would be
able to lead an active and happy life A proper diet exercise and a
pleasant environment are important for adding healthy and happy
years to the life of our elderly Also to be borne in mind is the fact
that Every one of us has to reach this phenomenon of nature one
day or the other provided we are lucky enough

OPD
OPD is an essential part of a hospital designed for outpatients to meet
with the doctors and consultants in their clinics It normally has
consulting rooms that are facilitated with treatment tools rooms
nurse stations waiting area etc

rehab
Rehabilitation describes specialized healthcare dedicated to
improving maintaining or restoring physical strength cognition and
mobility with maximized results
Typically rehabilitation helps people gain greater independence after
illness injury or surgery Rehabilitation can also be explained as the

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

facilities for standardization and propagation of the existing knowledge
and its application through research in naturopathy throughout India

medicine The term naturopathy means natural healing The
ideology and methods of naturopathy are based on vitalism and self-
healing rather than evidence-based medicine Naturopathic education
contains little of the established clinical training and curriculum by
doctors as naturopaths Naturopathy promotes a natural diet and
exercise with avoidance of tobacco and overwork Naturopaths deal
exclusively with lifestyle changes

Internet Modern libraries are increasingly being redefined as places to
get unrestricted access to information in many formats and from many
sources They are extending services beyond the physical walls of a
building by providing material accessible by electronic means and by
providing the assistance of librarians in navigating and analyzing very
large amounts of information with a variety of digital tools

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

research In addition to providing materials libraries also provide the
services of librarians who are experts at finding and organizing
information and at interpreting information needs Libraries often
provide quiet areas for studying and they also often offer common
Page | 46
areas to facilitate group study and collaboration Libraries often
provide public facilities for access to their electronic resources and the
Internet Modern libraries are increasingly being redefined as places to
get unrestricted access to information in many formats and from many
sources They are extending services beyond the physical walls of a
building by providing material accessible by electronic means and by
providing the assistance of librarians in navigating and analyzing very
large amounts of information with a variety of digital tools
A library has been planned to be set up in the premises for lsquoSamutkarsh

COUNCELLING Cell
Counselling falls under the umbrella term lsquotalking therapiesrsquo and allows
people to discuss their problems and any difficult feelings they
encounter in a safe confidential environment The term can mean
different things to different people but in general it is a process people
seek when they want to change something in their lives or simply
explore their thoughts and feelings in more depthA counsellor is not
there to sit you down and tell you what to do - instead they will
encourage you to talk about whats bothering you in order to uncover
any root causes and identify your specific ways of thinking The
counsellor may then look to create a plan of action to either help you
reconcile your issues or help you to find ways of copingKeeping the
importance of counselling in mind it has been planned to put up

also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

AYUSH which was established on December 22 1986 and encourages
facilities for standardization and propagation of the existing knowledge
and its application through research in naturopathy throughout India
Naturopathy or naturopathic medicine is a form of alternative
medicine The term naturopathy means natural healing The
ideology and methods of naturopathy are based on vitalism and self-
healing rather than evidence-based medicine Naturopathic education
contains little of the established clinical training and curriculum by
doctors as naturopaths Naturopathy promotes a natural diet and
exercise with avoidance of tobacco and overwork Naturopaths deal
exclusively with lifestyle changes

Internet Modern libraries are increasingly being redefined as places to
get unrestricted access to information in many formats and from many
sources They are extending services beyond the physical walls of a
building by providing material accessible by electronic means and by

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

medicine The term naturopathy means natural healing The
ideology and methods of naturopathy are based on vitalism and self-
healing rather than evidence-based medicine Naturopathic education
contains little of the established clinical training and curriculum by
doctors as naturopaths Naturopathy promotes a natural diet and
exercise with avoidance of tobacco and overwork Naturopaths deal
exclusively with lifestyle changes

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

be expected to have or who require professional assistance with their
research In addition to providing materials libraries also provide the
services of librarians who are experts at finding and organizing
information and at interpreting information needs Libraries often
provide quiet areas for studying and they also often offer common
Page | 46
areas to facilitate group study and collaboration Libraries often
provide public facilities for access to their electronic resources and the
Internet Modern libraries are increasingly being redefined as places to
get unrestricted access to information in many formats and from many
sources They are extending services beyond the physical walls of a
building by providing material accessible by electronic means and by
providing the assistance of librarians in navigating and analyzing very
large amounts of information with a variety of digital tools
A library has been planned to be set up in the premises for lsquoSamutkarsh
Aashrayrsquo
Page | 47

explore their thoughts and feelings in more depthA counsellor is not
there to sit you down and tell you what to do - instead they will
encourage you to talk about whats bothering you in order to uncover
any root causes and identify your specific ways of thinking The
counsellor may then look to create a plan of action to either help you
reconcile your issues or help you to find ways of copingKeeping the

Page | 56
garden
A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses
Here at lsquoSAMUTKARSH AASHRAYrsquo we have a vast garden keeping
in mind all the above requirements to keep our elders entertain
themselves and fulfill their hobbies

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

water was considered as a popular means to treat illnesses

spring well or river resulted in physical and spiritual purification

ceremonies of Jews Muslims Christians Buddhists and Hindus These
ceremonies reflect the ancient belief in the healing and purifying
properties of water

facilities for standardization and propagation of the existing knowledge
and its application through research in naturopathy throughout India
Naturopathy or naturopathic medicine is a form of alternative
medicine The term naturopathy means natural healing The
ideology and methods of naturopathy are based on vitalism and self-
healing rather than evidence-based medicine Naturopathic education
contains little of the established clinical training and curriculum by
doctors as naturopaths Naturopathy promotes a natural diet and
exercise with avoidance of tobacco and overwork Naturopaths deal
exclusively with lifestyle changes

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

Spa
A spa is used to give medicinal baths which typically offer various
health treatments which are also known as balneotherapy They are
quite popular and offer various personal care treatments Spa
therapies have existed since the classical times when taking bath with
water was considered as a popular means to treat illnesses
Many people around the world believed that bathing in a particular
spring well or river resulted in physical and spiritual purification
Today ritual purification through water can be found in the religious
ceremonies of Jews Muslims Christians Buddhists and Hindus These
ceremonies reflect the ancient belief in the healing and purifying
properties of water
Bathing regimens forms the foundation for spa procedures It utilizes
bathtubs wash basins and foot baths for personal cleanliness The
bathing routine included soaking in hot water drinking the water
steaming in a vapour room and relaxing in a cooling room

naturopathy
In India naturopathy is overseen by the Department of Ayurveda Yoga
and Naturopathy Unani Siddha and Homoeopathy (AYUSH) there is a
5frac12-year degree in Bachelor of Naturopathy and Yogic Sciences (BNYS)
degree that was offered by twelve colleges in India as of August 2010
The National Institute of Naturopathy in Pune that operates under
AYUSH which was established on December 22 1986 and encourages
facilities for standardization and propagation of the existing knowledge
and its application through research in naturopathy throughout India
Naturopathy or naturopathic medicine is a form of alternative
medicine The term naturopathy means natural healing The
ideology and methods of naturopathy are based on vitalism and self-
healing rather than evidence-based medicine Naturopathic education
contains little of the established clinical training and curriculum by
doctors as naturopaths Naturopathy promotes a natural diet and
exercise with avoidance of tobacco and overwork Naturopaths deal
exclusively with lifestyle changes
Page | 44
SEMINAR
A seminar is a form of academic instruction offered by a commercial or
professional organization It has the function of bringing together small
groups for recurring meetings focusing each time on some particular
subject in which everyone present is requested to actively participate

leader or instructor or through a more formal presentation of
research
It is essentially a place where assigned readings are discussed
questions can be raised and debates can be conducted

LIBRARY
A library is a collection of sources of information and similar resources
made accessible to a defined community for reference or borrowing It

A library is organized for use and maintained by a public body an
institution a corporation or a private individual Public and
institutional collections and services may be intended for use by people
who choose not tomdashor cannot afford tomdashpurchase an extensive
collection themselves who need material no individual can reasonably
be expected to have or who require professional assistance with their
research In addition to providing materials libraries also provide the
services of librarians who are experts at finding and organizing
information and at interpreting information needs Libraries often
provide quiet areas for studying and they also often offer common
Page | 46
areas to facilitate group study and collaboration Libraries often
provide public facilities for access to their electronic resources and the
Internet Modern libraries are increasingly being redefined as places to
get unrestricted access to information in many formats and from many
sources They are extending services beyond the physical walls of a
building by providing material accessible by electronic means and by
providing the assistance of librarians in navigating and analyzing very
large amounts of information with a variety of digital tools
A library has been planned to be set up in the premises for lsquoSamutkarsh
Aashrayrsquo

different things to different people but in general it is a process people
seek when they want to change something in their lives or simply
explore their thoughts and feelings in more depthA counsellor is not
there to sit you down and tell you what to do - instead they will
encourage you to talk about whats bothering you in order to uncover
any root causes and identify your specific ways of thinking The
counsellor may then look to create a plan of action to either help you
reconcile your issues or help you to find ways of copingKeeping the

scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

naturopathy
In India naturopathy is overseen by the Department of Ayurveda Yoga
and Naturopathy Unani Siddha and Homoeopathy (AYUSH) there is a
5frac12-year degree in Bachelor of Naturopathy and Yogic Sciences (BNYS)
degree that was offered by twelve colleges in India as of August 2010
The National Institute of Naturopathy in Pune that operates under
AYUSH which was established on December 22 1986 and encourages
facilities for standardization and propagation of the existing knowledge
and its application through research in naturopathy throughout India
Naturopathy or naturopathic medicine is a form of alternative
medicine The term naturopathy means natural healing The
ideology and methods of naturopathy are based on vitalism and self-
healing rather than evidence-based medicine Naturopathic education
contains little of the established clinical training and curriculum by
doctors as naturopaths Naturopathy promotes a natural diet and
exercise with avoidance of tobacco and overwork Naturopaths deal
exclusively with lifestyle changes
Page | 44
SEMINAR
A seminar is a form of academic instruction offered by a commercial or
professional organization It has the function of bringing together small

leader or instructor or through a more formal presentation of
research
It is essentially a place where assigned readings are discussed
questions can be raised and debates can be conducted

institution a corporation or a private individual Public and
institutional collections and services may be intended for use by people
who choose not tomdashor cannot afford tomdashpurchase an extensive
collection themselves who need material no individual can reasonably
be expected to have or who require professional assistance with their
research In addition to providing materials libraries also provide the
services of librarians who are experts at finding and organizing
information and at interpreting information needs Libraries often
provide quiet areas for studying and they also often offer common
Page | 46
areas to facilitate group study and collaboration Libraries often
provide public facilities for access to their electronic resources and the
Internet Modern libraries are increasingly being redefined as places to
get unrestricted access to information in many formats and from many
sources They are extending services beyond the physical walls of a
building by providing material accessible by electronic means and by
providing the assistance of librarians in navigating and analyzing very
large amounts of information with a variety of digital tools
A library has been planned to be set up in the premises for lsquoSamutkarsh
Aashrayrsquo

different things to different people but in general it is a process people
seek when they want to change something in their lives or simply
explore their thoughts and feelings in more depthA counsellor is not
there to sit you down and tell you what to do - instead they will
encourage you to talk about whats bothering you in order to uncover
any root causes and identify your specific ways of thinking The
counsellor may then look to create a plan of action to either help you
reconcile your issues or help you to find ways of copingKeeping the
importance of counselling in mind it has been planned to put up

intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

areas to facilitate group study and collaboration Libraries often

Internet Modern libraries are increasingly being redefined as places to
get unrestricted access to information in many formats and from many
sources They are extending services beyond the physical walls of a

reconcile your issues or help you to find ways of copingKeeping the

scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

areas to facilitate group study and collaboration Libraries often

Internet Modern libraries are increasingly being redefined as places to
get unrestricted access to information in many formats and from many
sources They are extending services beyond the physical walls of a

people to discuss their problems and any difficult feelings they
encounter in a safe confidential environment The term can mean
different things to different people but in general it is a process people
seek when they want to change something in their lives or simply
explore their thoughts and feelings in more depthA counsellor is not
there to sit you down and tell you what to do - instead they will
encourage you to talk about whats bothering you in order to uncover
any root causes and identify your specific ways of thinking The
counsellor may then look to create a plan of action to either help you
reconcile your issues or help you to find ways of copingKeeping the
importance of counselling in mind it has been planned to put up

garden
A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

areas to facilitate group study and collaboration Libraries often
provide public facilities for access to their electronic resources and the
Internet Modern libraries are increasingly being redefined as places to
get unrestricted access to information in many formats and from many
sources They are extending services beyond the physical walls of a
building by providing material accessible by electronic means and by
providing the assistance of librarians in navigating and analyzing very

people to discuss their problems and any difficult feelings they
encounter in a safe confidential environment The term can mean
different things to different people but in general it is a process people
seek when they want to change something in their lives or simply
explore their thoughts and feelings in more depthA counsellor is not
there to sit you down and tell you what to do - instead they will
encourage you to talk about whats bothering you in order to uncover
any root causes and identify your specific ways of thinking The
counsellor may then look to create a plan of action to either help you
reconcile your issues or help you to find ways of copingKeeping the
importance of counselling in mind it has been planned to put up
lsquoCounselling Sessionrsquo rooms in lsquoSamutkarsh Aashrayrsquo to counsel people
at various stages of life This will help in gently diagnose mental issues

garden
A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses
Here at lsquoSAMUTKARSH AASHRAYrsquo we have a vast garden keeping
in mind all the above requirements to keep our elders entertain
themselves and fulfill their hobbies

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

people to discuss their problems and any difficult feelings they
encounter in a safe confidential environment The term can mean
different things to different people but in general it is a process people
seek when they want to change something in their lives or simply
explore their thoughts and feelings in more depthA counsellor is not
there to sit you down and tell you what to do - instead they will
encourage you to talk about whats bothering you in order to uncover
any root causes and identify your specific ways of thinking The
counsellor may then look to create a plan of action to either help you
reconcile your issues or help you to find ways of copingKeeping the
importance of counselling in mind it has been planned to put up

garden
A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses
Here at lsquoSAMUTKARSH AASHRAYrsquo we have a vast garden keeping
in mind all the above requirements to keep our elders entertain
themselves and fulfill their hobbies

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

This creates huge requirements for nearby availability of toilets which is
easily searchable in the dark

nearby

garden
A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses
Here at lsquoSAMUTKARSH AASHRAYrsquo we have a vast garden keeping
in mind all the above requirements to keep our elders entertain
themselves and fulfill their hobbies

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

SPACIOUS ROOMS WITH TOILETS
Elderly people tend to wake up at nights several times for urination etc
This creates huge requirements for nearby availability of toilets which is
easily searchable in the dark
lsquoSamutkarsh Aashrayrsquo will be providing its esteemed members with
Spacious rooms with attached toilets to provide them with utmost relief
nearby
Page | 56
garden
A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses
Here at lsquoSAMUTKARSH AASHRAYrsquo we have a vast garden keeping
in mind all the above requirements to keep our elders entertain
themselves and fulfill their hobbies

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

KITCHEN amp PANTRY
KITCHEN
A kitchen is a room or part of a room used for cooking and food preparation
The main function of a kitchen is serving as a location for storing cooking
and preparing food (and doing related tasks such as dishwashing)
Here we provide pure vegetarian food to our member which is prepared in
the most hygienic condition
PANTRY
A pantry is a room where beverages food and sometimes dishes household
cleaning chemicals linens or provisions are stored Food and beverage
pantries serve in an ancillary capacity to the kitchen The pantry is used for a
practical utilitarian purpose
Today the term may also be used for any small storeroom used for non-
perishable foods such as canned goods it is needed to be located near the
kitchen

Communication lounge
Modern technologies have made life even simpler Nowadays
distances donrsquot matter thanks to modern communication facilities
Talking to near and dear onersquos has become much simpler Just a
click and you are good to go
lsquoSamutkarsh Aashrayrsquo understands the unsaid desire talking to
family and friends of its aged members and thus an Exclusive
lsquoCommunications Loungersquo (Computers) has been planned where
members of lsquoSamutkarsh Aashrayrsquo will be provided with modern
communicating gadgets like computers and i-pads with facilities like
Skype etc with high speed internet connection for a buffering free

SPACIOUS ROOMS WITH TOILETS
Elderly people tend to wake up at nights several times for urination etc
This creates huge requirements for nearby availability of toilets which is
easily searchable in the dark
lsquoSamutkarsh Aashrayrsquo will be providing its esteemed members with
Spacious rooms with attached toilets to provide them with utmost relief
nearby
Page | 56
garden
A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses
Here at lsquoSAMUTKARSH AASHRAYrsquo we have a vast garden keeping
in mind all the above requirements to keep our elders entertain
themselves and fulfill their hobbies

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Monsoon

monsoon with regards to the food we intake and the activities we
perform There are certain health risks we can suffer due to monsoon
Especially kids are very susceptible during monsoon This is the season
where waterborne bacteria can attack us and we can get reduction in
our immunity level Normally people suffer from indigestion allergies

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

KITCHEN amp PANTRY
KITCHEN
A kitchen is a room or part of a room used for cooking and food preparation
The main function of a kitchen is serving as a location for storing cooking
and preparing food (and doing related tasks such as dishwashing)
Here we provide pure vegetarian food to our member which is prepared in
the most hygienic condition
PANTRY
A pantry is a room where beverages food and sometimes dishes household
cleaning chemicals linens or provisions are stored Food and beverage
pantries serve in an ancillary capacity to the kitchen The pantry is used for a
practical utilitarian purpose
Today the term may also be used for any small storeroom used for non-
perishable foods such as canned goods it is needed to be located near the
kitchen
Page | 54
Communication lounge
Modern technologies have made life even simpler Nowadays
distances donrsquot matter thanks to modern communication facilities
Talking to near and dear onersquos has become much simpler Just a

Page | 55
SPACIOUS ROOMS WITH TOILETS
Elderly people tend to wake up at nights several times for urination etc
This creates huge requirements for nearby availability of toilets which is
easily searchable in the dark
lsquoSamutkarsh Aashrayrsquo will be providing its esteemed members with
Spacious rooms with attached toilets to provide them with utmost relief
nearby
Page | 56
garden
A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses
Here at lsquoSAMUTKARSH AASHRAYrsquo we have a vast garden keeping
in mind all the above requirements to keep our elders entertain
themselves and fulfill their hobbies

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

SPACIOUS ROOMS WITH TOILETS

This creates huge requirements for nearby availability of toilets which is
easily searchable in the dark
lsquoSamutkarsh Aashrayrsquo will be providing its esteemed members with
Spacious rooms with attached toilets to provide them with utmost relief
nearby

garden
A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses
Here at lsquoSAMUTKARSH AASHRAYrsquo we have a vast garden keeping
in mind all the above requirements to keep our elders entertain
themselves and fulfill their hobbies

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

SPACIOUS ROOMS WITH TOILETS
Elderly people tend to wake up at nights several times for urination etc
This creates huge requirements for nearby availability of toilets which is
easily searchable in the dark
lsquoSamutkarsh Aashrayrsquo will be providing its esteemed members with
Spacious rooms with attached toilets to provide them with utmost relief

garden
A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses
Here at lsquoSAMUTKARSH AASHRAYrsquo we have a vast garden keeping
in mind all the above requirements to keep our elders entertain
themselves and fulfill their hobbies

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

garden
A garden is a planned space usually outdoors set aside for the display
cultivation and enjoyment of plants and other forms of nature The
garden can incorporate both natural and man-made materials
Some gardens are for ornamental purposes only while some gardens
also produce food crops sometimes in separate areas or sometimes
intermixed with the ornamental plants
Food-producing gardens are distinguished from farms by their smaller
scale and their purpose (enjoyment of a hobby rather than produce for
sale)
Flower gardens combine plants of different heights colors textures and
fragrances to create interest and delight the senses
Here at lsquoSAMUTKARSH AASHRAYrsquo we have a vast garden keeping
in mind all the above requirements to keep our elders entertain
themselves and fulfill their hobbies

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Monsoon

monsoon with regards to the food we intake and the activities we

Especially kids are very susceptible during monsoon This is the season
where waterborne bacteria can attack us and we can get reduction in
our immunity level Normally people suffer from indigestion allergies

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

Because we care for your health
A comfortable old age is the reward of a well-spent youth Instead of its
bringing sad and melancholy prospects of decay it would give us hopes of
eternal youth in a better world
We cater services according the following Indian seasons-
Winter
Summer
Autumn
Winters
Page | 61
The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high

4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Monsoon
The first water droplets of the monsoon make us relieved and joyous
This season can be a remedy of rashes we got due to prickly heat
during the summer But we too need to be really careful during
monsoon with regards to the food we intake and the activities we
perform There are certain health risks we can suffer due to monsoon
Especially kids are very susceptible during monsoon This is the season
where waterborne bacteria can attack us and we can get reduction in
our immunity level Normally people suffer from indigestion allergies
and several types of infections Let us find out some tips that will keep
us healthy during monsoon
Be healthy throughout the monsoon season in India needs particular
care to be taken The rainfall and water lying around makes it very
simple for mosquitoes to type and rises the risk of mosquito conveyed

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

The winter season presents specific risks and challenges that can be exaggerated
for older adults We value the safety of our patients while they are with us and
certainly once they go home Because of this we believe that itrsquos important to be
prepared for the risks that winter weather can bring Here are seven safety tips to
help mitigate those risks
1) Keep warm Older adults are at a greater risk of developing hypothermia
mdash a dangerous drop in body temperature mdash during cold weather Aging
lowers onersquos ability to withstand longer periods of cold even from just
sitting in a colder than normal room Certain conditions and medications
can also affect a personrsquos ability to sense cold making them especially
vulnerable Because of this older people should keep indoor temps above
65 degrees and look for the warning signs of hypothermia ndash shivering
cold and pale or ashy skin abnormal fatigue sudden confusion andor
slowed breathing and heart rate If you notice these symptoms call 911
immediately
2) Avoid falls While falls are a constant concern regardless of weather
seniors need to be especially vigilant in avoiding falls during the winter
Ice snow and mobility impeded by cold temperatures can wreak havoc
on a normally safe environment Given the particularly dangerous nature
of falls in older adults it is crucial for individuals and their loved ones to
keep steps and walks clear of snow ice and other potential fall hazards
Be especially cautious when using canes walkers crutches etc on snow
and ice
3) Watch for wintertime depression Itrsquos not uncommon for older adults to
alter their social engagements during the winter months because of the
cold and inclement weather While this seems like a good idea in terms of
limiting exposure to winter illnesses and avoiding fall risks it can actually
have a negative impact on onersquos mental and emotional well-being Staying
active and finding alternative social outlets is a big factor in avoiding
wintertime depression If you have older family members who are at risk
of becoming isolated make an effort to visit call or arrange activities to
keep their spirits high
Page | 62
4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for

4) Eat a varied diet When itrsquos cold outside wersquore less likely to get the sun
exposure that we need for our bodies to produce Vitamin D and we tend
to eat a less varied diet Eating foods with Vitamin D like milk grains
and certain seafood can help with this deficit You might even talk with
your doctor about taking a vitamin D supplement
5) Prepare for emergencies Winter storms can cause a variety of problems
including long-lasting power outages and snowed- or iced-in conditions It
is essential to be prepared for such events before they occur
The CDC website has a wealth of information on preparing for extreme
cold conditions They have created a printable document ndash Extreme Cold
Guide ndash that includes information for what to do before during and after
a winter storm Tips include storm preparation safety checklists and
health information This guide is a valuable clearinghouse for anyone
preparing for winter weather
6) Drive safely While safe driving practices are always paramount hazards
can be exaggerated during inclement weather It is important to know
onersquos limits when it comes to operating a vehicle If you donrsquot feel
comfortable driving in ice and snow ask a friend or family member for a
ride Another concern on the road is emergency preparedness Make sure
you have supplies in your car to keep you safe in case of a stranding or
accident Warm blankets and clothes food a flashlight and an ice scraper
should be standard equipment in the car Always travel with a cell phone
and charger in case you have an emergency Another way to avoid
problems is to have your car winterized by a trusted professional
7) Maintain safe heating It is vitally important to keep heaters fireplaces
furnaces etc in good working order and free of clutter to avoid fires and
carbon monoxide leaks Beyond having these devices checked by a
professional you should have working smoke and carbon monoxide
detectors Make sure the detectors are properly installed on every floor
Page | 63
and are in good working condition Each bedroom and sleeping area
should have its own smoke detector

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

where waterborne bacteria can attack us and we can get reduction in
our immunity level Normally people suffer from indigestion allergies

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

Summer
As the country continues to experience its recent history of long hot summers it
is becoming vitally important that we understand symptoms of heat related
illnesses especially for our seniors Our bodies work hard every day to maintain a
normal temperature Excessive heat forces our body to work harder than normal
which often is the root cause of heat-related illness Essentially the heat forces
our bodies to work beyond their limits For senior citizens this can be a
dangerous - and even deadly - problem With awareness and preventative
measures caregivers can help their senior loved ones enjoy a healthy active
summer
Symptoms of heat stroke include headache dizziness elevated or lowered blood
pressure disorientation agitation confusion sluggishness fatigue seizures hot
dry skin fainting loss of consciousness increased body temperature rapid
heartbeat and hallucinations
Page | 65
Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

Another major issue seniors can experience due to prolonged heat exposure is
dehydration People age 65 and older can lose their sense of thirst and tend to
not drink enough Older people also have less ability to perspire which is a
mechanism to release heat from the body In addition many older people have
chronic health problems such as diabetes high blood pressure and heart disease
and may take medications that can make them more susceptible to dehydration
and can cause increased sensitivity to sunlight
Dehydration is caused by loss of salts and water in our bodies due to severe
sweating extreme heat vomiting diarrhea and certain medications Severe
dehydration can become life threatening to the elderly because there is no longer
enough fluid in the body to carry blood to the organs Symptoms of dehydration
include thirst dry skin fatigue confusion light headed dry mouth increased
heart and breathing rate and decreased urination Seniors who are dehydrated
should be moved to a cool place to lie down and rest They should drink water to
replenish fluids
As a caregiver you can help to prevent dehydration and heat exhaustion in senior
loved one by following these simple tips
Make sure senior drinks plenty of fluids- throughout the day even if
he or she doesnt feel thirsty Seniors should avoid caffeine and alcoholic
beverages as much as possible as they accelerate dehydration Have him or
her drink plenty of water The body also loses sodium and potassium
through sweating so popular sports drinks can be good for rehydration
also Good nutrition and adequate fluids are especially important for
seniors in the hot summer months Remember dehydration increases the
risk of skin injury
Avoid direct sun exposure especially during peak hours of 10
am to 3 pm- Keeping your senior out of direct sunlight as much as
possible is key Seek out shaded spots outdoors To protect your seniors
skin from harmful UV rays the American Cancer Society uses a catch
phrase that can help your senior remember some useful steps to protect
him or herself when going out in the sun - Slip Slop Slap And Wrap
Page | 66
Meaning Slip on a shirt Slop on Sunscreen Slap on a hat And Wrap on
sunglasses to protect the eyes and sensitive skin around them
Limit strenuous activity and exercise Our body works hard enough
during the hot days that adding strenuous physical activity can be
detrimental If your senior exercises regularly try it during the early
morning or late evenings Planning around the hottest time of the day can
help to limit exposure to the heat
Take frequent breaks to cool down When spending time out in the
hot sun its beneficial to take numerous breaks to recover Having a cool
area in his or her home in which to recover can also be beneficial Make
sure the homes cooling device - whether its an electric fan a portable air
conditioner or central AC - is working properly to ensure faster recovery

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons

Autumn
Fall is upon us and with the change of the seasons comes beautiful colors and
cooler temperatures With all the beauty that the Autumn brings there are also
inherent hazards with the change in seasons It is important to begin to plan for the
colder temperatures Planning for autumn is even more important for seniors
living alone or in assisted living communities The onset of autumn means and
increase in season-related falls and illnesses while the changing climate sets
in Although most falls do not cause injury the results of a fall can be serious If
you break a bone in this season then this can lead to long-term disability Broken
bones do not always heal completely as you get older and a serious injury could
mean that you would no longer be able to live without support So it is necessary
to take extra care when you face cold seasons
