EverTrue Tower Grove

Summer is a great time to get out and enjoy outdoor activities, but it’s important to remember that too much heat and too much sun is not safe for anyone.

Jha Mitchell, an RN and Director of Nursing at EverTrue Mason Pointe, said that it is important to even monitor yourself when coming back inside because "sometimes you don't get the effects of overheating until much later and you think everything's okay."

Older adults can have fun safely this summer by remembering a few tips:
🫗Stay hydrated
☀️Wear (and reapply) sunscreen
🧢Dress appropriately for the weather
⏲️Limit outdoor activities when temperatures are hottest and,
❄️Finally, when you’re starting to feel too hot, cool off somewhere with air conditioning.
