Why summer can be destabilizing.
Summer often brings enjoyable changes in daily routines, schedules, activities, and time spent outdoors. For older adults and those managing chronic health conditions or memory concerns, these changes can increase the risk of dehydration, heat-related illness, missed medications, fatigue, and confusion. A little planning can help you stay safe, healthy, and enjoy everything summer has to offer.
