☀️ Care Tip for a Sunny Saturday: Beat the Heat!
As the warm weather continues in Plymouth, here are five simple yet vital ways our support staff can help keep individuals stay safe and comfortable:
**Stay hydrated – offer cool water regularly, and encourage sipping throughout the day. Avoid caffeine and alcohol, which can worsen dehydration
**Use water‑rich snacks – watermelon, cucumber, soups, or ice lollies which are refreshing and gentle on the stomach
**Dress smart – choose loose, light‑ clothes and wide‑brimmed hats for outdoor time
**Create cool spaces – close curtains during peak hours, use fans and apply cool damp cloths to neck and wrists
**Spot dehydration early – watch for signs like dizziness, confusion, dark urine, or dry skin. Encourage fluids and seek medical advice if symptoms persist
