The physical results for seniors who make a lifestyle change to include exercise are impressive. Studies have shown that a regimen of 30 minutes a day, five days a week of moderate exercise reduces the risk of death for those with cardiovascular disease by 20% or more.
By increasing seniors’ safety, they can not only experience better health and well-being but also stand a greater chance of living in their own homes independently for as long as possible. With the wealth of information available on senior safety, though, it can be difficult to know where to start. Two areas to consider are home and vehicle safety.
Seniors are at a higher risk for dehydration than younger adults. In fact, one study showed that up to 48% of seniors were dehydrated upon admission to the emergency department for other issues.
