The best precautions against hypothermia are: • Dress warmly, including a hat or cap--even when indoors--eat enough food, and stay as active as possible. • Because hypothermia may start during sleep, keep warm in bed by wearing enough clothing and using blankets. • Ask your doctors whether some of the medications you take—especially those to treat anxiety, depression, nervousness, or nausea—might affect your body temperature. • Have friends or neighbors lookun on you regularly, particularly during a cold spell. Some communities have a telephone check-in or personal visit service for the elderly or homebound. Caution, common sense, and prompt medical care can help older people have a healthy winter.
