Winter Safety Tips

Watch for icy, uneven sidewalks, cracks, and fallen loose debris to avoid injuries.

Keeping your knees loose keeps your center of gravity lower to the ground, stabilizing the body.

Wear a hip protector to protect the hips against injuries.

Make two or three trips to the car to carry in groceries.

Wear layers and mittens to protect the skin from drying.

Use moisturizers to keep the skin healthy and to avoid rashes.

Cover your nose and mouth while going outside to prevent cold and infections.
