We can’t believe it’s true, but August - the last full month of summer is here. Don’t forget to keep heat and sun safety a priority when you’re out and about! Check out our tips for staying safe in the sun and in the event of extreme heat:

• Find shady areas for a break from the sun when possible; Avoid work or exercise outside during peak heat hours of the day.
• Drink plenty of water regularly and proactively, especially when doing strenuous activities or sweating. Electrolytes help replenish lost fluids, too. Avoid caffeinated, sugary, and alcoholic beverages, as each of those can contribute to dehydration.
• Wear sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15 and reapply as recommended. Prolonged exposure to then sun can result in sunburn – and can contribute to skin cancer.
• Wear loose-fitting, light-colored clothing and a wide-brimmed hat to protect yourself from the sun’s rays.
• Understand the signs and symptoms of heat-related illnesses. Be sure to act sooner versus later.

Beat the heat and work toward your best self with PAM Health’s specialized pulmonary rehab and other programs. Reach out today to learn more!

Yard work season is injury season. Ladders are involved in a large share of serious fall injuries, including an estimated 43 percent of fatal falls in one national analysis (Socias et al., 2014). Three legs of contact, level ground, and a spotter are not optional. And if a summer injury has already set you back, PAM Health Outpatient Therapy can get you back to the yard the right way.

August heat is not a fair opponent. Heat illness is preventable with steady hydration, work-rest cycles, and moving strenuous activity out of the hottest hours (Casa et al., 2015). One caution for older adults: the sense of thirst weakens with age, so by the time you feel thirsty you are already behind (Kenney & Chiu, 2001). Drink on a schedule, not a signal. Swimming? It counts as exercise and it cools you, but never swim alone.
