Tips to Keep Your Home Safe for All
September 2022
Enjoy the End of the Summer!
“Autumn carries more gold in its pocket than all the other seasons."
Jim Bishop
 
The first official day of fall is on September 22. I know some of us love the fall season with the leaves changing color and feeling the crisp fall air. It's also a time to engage in some fun activities with seniors because as the weather changes and it gets cold out, more and more seniors are wanting to stay in their homes. Think of things that they will enjoy - working on a fall-themed jigsaw puzzle, preparing individual treat-or-treat bags for Halloween or possibly going out on a nice, sunny day for a walk. These are inexpensive, simple and fun ideas!

Have a safe fall season!

Why Choose Home Healthsmith...

"What a pleasure to work with Home Healthsmith. We started the process of building a new beach home in Niantic CT over a year ago. We would need an elevator in that there were 3 floors, because of a narrow lot. We made a trip to RI and had a demo of the elevator that was proposed. Great presentation and professional. During the construction our contractor and Home Healthsmith worked together with the schedule and were there too as promised to facilitate a smooth installation. Elevator is complete and now I offer $5 elevator rides. Joking…

I would recommend Home Healthsmith to anyone in New England Great Job! "

Better Breakfast Month – September 2022
Better Breakfast Month is celebrated annually in September and a healthy breakfast promotes healthy living for the elderly.

It is important that elderly people eat breakfast, as most of them are not really hungry in the morning. By eating small portions of nutritious foods, we can ensure they are getting enough vitamins and minerals and will live a healthy life.

We need to encourage the elderly to have breakfast to prevent malnutrition, ensure they are fully powered up for the day so they can carry out tasks with ease and ensure improved quality of life as a whole since health is wealth.

It is of utmost importance that elderly understand that blood sugar levels are low when they wake up and it is only a nutritious breakfast that can replenish this.

What are some of the benefits that the elderly can benefit from eating breakfast:
  1. Breakfast keeps the brain fueled
  2. Breakfast keeps the body energized throughout the day
  3. Breakfast balances blood sugar and promotes health
  4. Breakfast promotes healthy eating all day
  5. Breakfast reduces the risk of obesity
  6. Breakfast helps metabolize medication
