As warmer temperatures arrive, it’s important for stroke survivors and caregivers to prioritize hydration, rest, and heat safety.

Hot weather can sometimes increase fatigue, dizziness, or dehydration — especially for individuals managing medications or mobility challenges.

A few simple reminders for summer wellness:

☀Stay hydrated throughout the day
☀Take breaks during outdoor activities
☀Dress in lightweight clothing
☀Avoid prolonged heat exposure
☀Continue staying socially connected

Recovery thrives in community.
