Keeping Elderly People Well During A Heatwave

 

Keeping elderly people well in a heatwave. This image is predominantly yellow in colour. It shows a blazing sun which is white with strong yellow and orange rays. There is a little fluffy white cloud to the bottom left of the image and a large slightly curved temperature gauge to the right. It is showing the temperature to be in the mid 40's

Keeping Elderly People Well in A Heatwave.

Keeping elderly people well in a heatwave can potentially save lives. Between 1988 and 2022 more than 52,000 deaths were associated with increased heat levels. In 2022 the highest temperature ever recorded hit 40.3 degrees which prompted a level 4 Heat Health Alert.

What Temperature is Dangerous?

Anything above 80 degrees can be dangerous to anyone elderly with many struggling with lower temperatures. With global warming, we are experiencing more Summers with prolonged periods of increasingly high temperatures.  Home thermometers can help you to understand how hot your home is. Keeping elderly people well in a heatwave can prevent heat-related illness and deaths.

Most At Risk

Elderly people living alone are at increased risk. Also, those living with serious long-term medical conditions such as Parkinson’s Disease, Cardiovascular disease, Dementia, Diabetes, lung and kidney disorders.

To Avoid Becoming Unwell

Keeping elderly people well in a heatwave can reduce the risk of serious implications.

NHS guidelines to prevent heat exhaustion and heatstroke are to:

  • Find a cool place. Pulling your curtains can help,
  • Loosen clothing, wear lightweight clothes preferably made from cotton,
  • Take plenty of cool drinks, it’s best to sip these regularly rather than drink them in one go,
  • If possible take cool showers or use a flannel to cool yourself down.

More Tips

  • It’s a good idea to eat plenty of fruit and veg with a high water content such as melon, grapes, cucumber,
  • Use an electric fan if the temperature is below 80 degrees, if it is higher they are not always so effective,
  • Hold your wrist under a running cold tap. This helps cool the part of your brain that regulates temperature,
  • Reduce your activity levels, and don’t over-exert yourself in extreme heat
  • Wear a hat if you do venture out and make sure you have applied plenty of sunscreen
  • Check on other elderly friends and neighbours.

Heat-Related Illness

Having a heat-related illness may be reduced by following the tips above. However, it’s good to know what symptoms to look for if you care for someone elderly.

Dehydration

Elderly people are not good at staying well hydrated. Drinking water was never a thing back in the day. Most of us are already dehydrated to some degree if we feel thirsty. Older people especially people with dementia find it harder to know if they need a drink.

An elderly person may be dehydrated if they are weaker than usual, have problems sleeping or are mildly confused. They may also experience cramps in their legs, arms or stomach. They may complain of a headache or feel nauseous, they may also feel dizzy.

Heat Exhaustion

Someone suffering from heat exhaustion may complain of dizziness and headache. Their pulse may be fast and they may be sweating heavily. They may also feel nauseous or vomit. To help them if possible move them to somewhere cool and loosen their clothing. Provide them with a cool drink or cool them down with damp flannels or a shower if available. If they don’t feel better after 30 minutes seek medical help via the 111 service.

Heatstroke

Heatstroke can be serious and lead to seizures and unconsciousness. If you suspect someone has heatstroke call 999. The symptoms are the same as heat exhaustion so if you are at all unsure, call for help.

  111. Hello,

    Can I request a free room thermometer for my mother in law as I think it is far too cold in her home when we visit. We do tell her to turn the heating up but she always says she is warm enough (I don’t think she is, I am sure she is scared of the bill that she might get turning the heating up). I think if she has a themometer we can see that she is warm enough and safe.

    Many thanks
    Mrs Carol Davis

  112. Yes of course Emma. I will send one out to your parents today. Please sign up for my monthly newsletter so I can let you know of other offers and give-aways.

  114. Hello Margaret,
    Thank you for your comment and observations. I will pass this on to Age UK as obviously no one wants well needed funds to be wasted.

  115. I have one of these thermometers from my local Age Uk which was for my 90 year old parents. However I was most surprised to find that it is not terribly easy to read being digital, and that for the majority of elderly who will have failing eyesight and lack of mobility enabling them to get close to the thermometer it does need some improvements. As it stands the production of the thermometer in its present form is I consider a waste of money. There is a definite need for a clear easy to read thermometer

  116. Hello Mr Chan,
