My parents are older people in their 80s. I am really concern about their condition on hot days like we have recently. Do you have any advises for older people that could help them to survive hot days? Please share with me if you do.

I general I ask them to avoid insolation especially between noon and 4 pm. I ask them to drink plenty of water and wear bright (sun reflecting) and sheer clothing. I bought the portable a/c unit which helps a bit to cool down the air temperature in their apartment. Do you think, there is something else to make their lives easier on such day?

Please share your opinions and ideas. Thank you, Monika.
