Seven points for attention in autumn health care for the elderly: 1, regulating diet, nourishing the lungs and promoting fluid production. Because the five internal organs are weak and the stomach is weak, if the diet is cold and unrestrained, and the hunger is impermanent, it will definitely hurt the stomach and get sick.
Therefore, in autumn, the elderly should eat less and eat more, and eat more cooked, soft and appetizing things. 2, add more water to drive away the dry autumn weather, the main external evil is dryness, and people's body fluids are easily damaged, so the most important thing in autumn is to add enough water, and the same is true for the elderly.
In autumn, it is important to nourish the lungs and enter the lungs in vain. Therefore, it is advisable to eat "white fruits and vegetables" such as lotus root, lily, white radish, yam, tremella, ginkgo, pear, lotus seed and water chestnut during this time. 3, improve cold resistance, prevent colds, the temperature difference in autumn changes greatly, cold pathogens are very easy to hurt people, and the resistance and adaptability of the elderly are reduced, especially prone to colds, pneumonia, cor pulmonale, and even heart failure, which is life-threatening.
So pay attention to cold and warmth. If possible, you can insist on washing your face, wiping your nose, or even taking a cold bath with cold water to improve your cold resistance and prevent colds. 4. Cold sleep is the highlight of health care. The elderly have poor physical fitness and high requirements for sleeping environment.
It is easy to be attacked by "thief wind" because of the cool breeze in autumn night. So the old man is asleep and must lie down to keep out the cold.
5. Pay attention to the ventilation of the room, and always keep the room ventilated when it is cold. When the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor is 10℃, indoor air can be exchanged within 15 minutes. Don't smoke in the room to reduce pollution. Pay attention to maintaining indoor humidity in daily life. You can wipe the indoor furniture with a wet towel. It is best to install a ventilator in the kitchen. Some flowers and plants can be raised in the courtyard and indoors to adjust the air humidity.
6, strengthen exercise, enhance physical fitness, and the climate turns cold in autumn, which is a good opportunity for outdoor sports. The elderly can choose suitable exercise programs according to their personal hobbies and interests, such as walking, jogging, doing exercises, boxing, playing ball games, outing and so on. 7. Pleasure body and mind, cultivate sentiment. The bleak scenery in nature can easily lead to the negative emotions of pessimism and sadness of the elderly.
Therefore, the elderly should pay special attention to mental health care, and can choose cultural and recreational activities such as playing chess, painting and calligraphy, planting flowers and grass, playing with things and watching birds, etc. to enjoy their body and mind, cultivate their sentiments and spend their old age safely.
2. How to attract the elderly to attend health lectures?
My personal experience is as follows: First, for the purpose of spreading health knowledge, the elderly dislike marketing by not selling health care products or products; Second, we should talk about practical health knowledge instead of always saying "life is not a dream"; Third, when talking about senile diseases, we should talk about prevention and treatment methods, emphasize that health depends on our own practice, and encourage them to enhance their confidence in health and take persistent actions; Don't make a hullabaloo about how terrible senile diseases are and scare people; Fourth, interactive teaching is good, encouraging questions and discussions; The fifth is the combination of lectures and operations, such as measuring students' height and weight between classes, calculating body mass index and determining the degree of obesity; Measure blood pressure; Measure the blood sugar at hand.
And record it, and then track and compare it to judge the health trend and preventive effect; Sixth, popular science should be easy to understand, professional language should be popular, not necessarily accurate, less quoted, and no figures should be piled up. Seventh, the use of multimedia lectures can be illustrated with pictures and texts, with both sound and form; Eighth, if possible, distribute handouts before class and give health-related gifts after class, such as quantitative salt spoons.
