A practical tip for the warmer August days: staying well hydrated becomes even more important for older adults in the heat, and it can sometimes be easy to forget during a busy day of caring.
Keeping a jug of water with a slice of lemon or a few mint leaves on the kitchen table is a simple way to encourage regular sips without it feeling like a reminder.
Small adjustments like this can make a real difference to how someone feels through the day.
