🌞 Whether it's a stroll in the park, gardening, or a family picnic, the summer months provide so many ways for an aging loved one to get outside and stay active. But don't forget the sunscreen! (and a hat🤠) July is UV Safety Awareness Month, a great reminder for people -- especially older adults -- to protect themselves from the harmful rays of the sun. As a person ages, their skin becomes thinner, removing natural defenses and making them more vulnerable to UV damage. Before heading out, check out a few of our summer safety tips. 👇 #HomeInstead #Summer #Safety #Seniors #UVSafetyAwarenessMonth
