SUN PROTECTION: Limit sun exposure between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m., when the sun’s rays are strongest; wear protective clothing – hat, long-sleeved shirts, long pants and sunglasses – when you’re out in the sun; and apply an SPF 15 sunscreen before every exposure to the sun, re-applying liberally at least every two hours or after swimming.
NURSING HOMES: Residents are admitted by a doctor and remain under his or her care during their stay. Nursing homes provide 24-hour care that costs $2,500 to $4,000 a month. Services include giving injections and performing catheterizations, as well as help with bathing and dressing.
BUILDING MUSCLES: The popularity of strength training is increasing. Proper nutrition and an adequate calorie intake are required in order to maintain or build muscle. If calories are insufficient, your body will feed off of your protein, or muscle tissue. The recommended daily requirment of protein for men is 63 grams of protein and 50 grams for women.
