Staying Safe in Hot Weather and Heatwaves

How to look after your service users in hot weather

- Keep blinds down and windows closed when its cooler inside than out
- Advise people to avoid going out during the hottest part of the day (11am-3pm)
- A cool bath or shower, or a damp cloth or a splash of water at the back of the neck can be better at cooling a person down than a fan
- Support people to drink plenty of water to avoid getting dehydrated. But avoid alcohol as it can dehydrate
- Encourage people to keep eating even if they are not feeling too hungry. Encourage them to eat food that's cold and has a lot of water in it, like fruit or salad

- Stay hydrated, try to drink plenty of water and carry a water bottle with you
- Wear a sunhat and sun cream if you are outside
- Try to stay in the shade as often as possible when travelling outside

National High Blood Pressure Education Month

High blood pressure, hypertension, is a major risk factor for heart disease. This month emphasises the importance of regular blood pressure checks, lifestyle changes and preventive measures to control hypertension.

On the NHS website it says that high blood pressure is very common, especially in older adults. There are usually no symptoms and you may not know you have it.
Ageing increases your blood pressure, but having close relatives with high blood pressure can increase your risk. Ethnicity can increase your risk of high blood pressure if you have a Black African, Black Caribbean or South Asian ethnic background.
Being overweight, or having an unhealthy diet, smoking, drinking too much alcohol or feeling stressed over a long period.
Get your blood pressure checked at a pharmacy or GP surgery if you think you might have high blood pressure or at risk if you are 40 or over and not had your blood pressure checked for more than five years.

The entire month of May highlights the nutritional benefits of salads, including vitamins, fibre, and antioxidants and emphasises the versatility of leafy greens and vegetables.
The purpose of this month is to get people to try new salad recipes and ingredients. It is an opportunity for nutritionists, health professionals, schools and community organisations to educate people about balanced diets and the role of salads in maintaining good health.
The ways to celebrate are to have a daily salad challenge, a different salad to explore new flavours and textures. Have a salad evening were everyone brings their own variation of a salad. Why not learn new salad making techniques and recipes.

Skin Cancer Awareness Month

May is the month dedicated to raising awareness about the importance of protecting your skin and recognising early warning signs of skin cancer.
There are three main types of skin cancer. The first is basal cell carcinoma (BCCs) then Squamous cell carcinoma (SCCs) and melanoma. BCCs and SCCs are different from melanoma. They are called non-melanoma skin cancers and are more common than melanoma.

Most skin cancers are caused by skin damage that happens from exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light from the sun or sunbeds. (Macmillan Cancer Support) It does not matter what type of skin you have, everyone can get skin cancer.
One important thing is to protect your skin which you can do by being safe in the sun. Use at least an ASPF 30 with 5 UVA. This is recommended by Macmillan Cancer Support. Reapply suncream every two hours or more after swimming or exercise. Use enough sun cream, it is recommended at least 6-8 teaspoons of lotion per area. Apply on clean and dry skin and 20-30 minutes before going into the sun. Use a hat and wear long sleeves. Wear UV blocking sunglasses to protect your eyes. Do not use a sunbed or sunlamp, if you need a tan use a fan tan lotion or spray.
Look for the symptoms of skin cancer such as a new or changing mole, or a lump on the skin, or a patch of scaly, crusty or rough skin. Sores or scabs should heal quickly but if it persists for more than 3 weeks see your GP. Look out for changes under the nails or on the palms or soles.

National Superhero Day

National Superhero Day takes place on April 28th celebrating both fictional heroes of comic books, film, and real-life heroes.
In 1995 employees of Marvel Comics asked children what superpowers they wished they had. The children admired fictional superheroes but also real-life heroes such as parents, teaches, and first responders.

This day is to recognise the courage, selflessness, and positive impact of heroes. So, as well as Iron Man, Wonder Woman and Captain America, the day celebrates firefighters, police officers, medical professionals, teachers and volunteers.
National Superhero Day emphasises that heroism is about making a positive difference, not just having superpowers. (Days of The Year).

There are several ways to celebrate this day. You could dress up as your favourite superhero. Have a superhero themed party or a superhero movie marathon. Encourage children to draw superheroes or discuss what makes a superhero.
