Tips for the Health of the Elderly
(1) The elderly should live in spacious and bright rooms. If not, at least the room should be clean and elegant. In summer, it should be spacious and bright without being too hot. In winter, it should be well-sealed, warm and comfortable.
The bed should not be high and wide, making it easy to get on and off the bed. "Three screens around the bed" can "prevent cold wind".
The chair you sit on should not be too high. "Place railings on both sides and a table in front" can prevent accidental injuries.
(2) Clothing and dress requirements for the elderly from a health perspective. Wear more silk clothes compared to clothes made from hemp and linen;
Silk clothes are smooth and soft, comfortable to wear, and can enhance the vitality of the skin cells, promote skin cell metabolism, and have good health benefits.
Precautions for the Health of the Elderly
Clothes should not be too loose and long, as clothes that are too long can easily trip the elderly, and clothes that are too loose are not conducive to keeping warm.
