Recently, many places have encountered heavy rainfall, urban waterlogging phenomenon is frequent, to people's lives have brought a lot of inconvenience, but also hidden many potential safety hazards, especially for the elderly who are inconvenient to move, slow response, sudden rainstorm and water accumulation is more dangerous, so, how should the elderly do a good job of safety protection through the flood season?
To pay attention to the weather forecast and early warning information in time, many elderly people are accustomed to getting up early to go out to exercise or buy vegetables, and the strong convective weather in summer is changeable, often early morning is the high incidence of heavy rain, therefore, the elderly should develop the habit of checking the weather forecast before going out, pay attention to the early warning information issued by the meteorological department, try to avoid traveling in bad weather, if you must go out, try to choose public transportation, and keep in touch with your family in order to get help in time
It is also necessary to prepare for flood prevention at home in advance, check whether the doors and windows of the house are firm, clean up the debris on the balcony, window sill and other places, prevent rain from backing up or falling objects from high altitudes to cause injury, and always have some flashlights, power banks, emergency medicines and other items at home in case of emergency
Heavy rain raid be careful to "see the sea" to "distress"
In recent years, with the acceleration of urbanization, the problem of urban waterlogging has become increasingly prominent, and safety accidents caused by heavy rain and water accumulation are not uncommon
Stagnant water is often mixed with a large amount of sewage, garbage, and even broken glass, metal fragments and other sharp objects, accidentally will scratch the skin, causing infection, manhole cover is washed away, road collapse and other situations also occur from time to time, rash wading is very easy to cause accidents, vehicles in the stagnant water stalling is a common phenomenon, if you can not escape in time, you may be trapped in the car, or even washed away by the flood
Therefore, when a rainstorm hits, the public should try to go out as much as possible, let alone wade into danger to "see the sea" in pursuit of excitement, if you must go out, choose a safe route, avoid waterlogged roads, and always pay attention to the safety of your feet
How to avoid danger when traveling for the elderly in urban waterlogging?
Urban waterlogging caused by heavy rain, not only brings inconvenience to people's travel, but also brings great challenges to the travel safety of the elderly, due to the decline of physical function, the elderly have relatively weak response ability, balance ability and emergency response ability, and are more likely to have accidents in the face of waterlogged roads, slippery ground, etc., so how can the elderly travel safely in rainstorm weather?
Try to avoid traveling in rainy weather, if you have to go out, you can choose to take public transportation, or seek help from family and neighbors, before traveling, wear non-slip and comfortable shoes, try not to wear slippers, high heels and other slippery shoes, when carrying rain gear, it is best to choose a light raincoat, avoid using umbrellas that block the view, so as not to affect the observation of road conditions
Choose a safe travel route, avoid waterlogged roads, do not approach dangerous areas such as rivers and bridges, when walking, slow down, stride small, maintain body balance, avoid falling, if you need to cross waterlogged roads, first observe the water depth and water flow, choose an area with gentle water flow and low water level, and try to rely on walls or handrails to walk to ensure safety
How can the elderly prevent "secondary disasters" after heavy rains?
On the contrary, some "secondary disasters" may be quietly approaching, posing a threat to the health and safety of the elderly, for example, after a rainstorm, the temperature plummets, which is easy to cause colds, respiratory infections and other diseases; Standing water breeds mosquitoes and increases the risk of spreading diseases; Food is prone to spoilage, causing food poisoning, etc
Therefore, after the rainstorm, the elderly should be more vigilant, prepare for "secondary disasters", pay attention to adding clothes to keep warm, and prevent colds; Keep the room ventilated and dry to prevent mosquito breeding; Pay attention to food hygiene, choose fresh and safe food, and avoid eating damp and moldy food
Caring for the elderly starts with the small things around you
In the face of disasters, we need to unite as one and help each other, especially for the elderly
Children should get in touch with the elderly in a timely manner, understand their needs, remind them to pay attention to safety, and accompany them as much as possible to get through the difficulties, community staff should strengthen visits and condolences to the elderly living alone and empty nesters, and provide timely help, volunteers can organize to help the elderly clean up stagnant water, carry items, and send them warmth and love
Technology empowerment escorts the safety of the elderly
With the development of science and technology, more and more scientific and technological products and services can be applied to the field of safety protection for the elderly, providing more accurate and efficient security for the elderly
For example, some smart watches, bracelets and other wearable devices, can monitor the location of the elderly, heart rate, blood pressure and other physical indicators in real time, once there is an abnormal situation, you can send an alarm in time, and notify the family or relevant departments, some communities have installed intelligent monitoring systems, can monitor the water level in the community in real time, the flow of people, etc., and through the mobile phone APP and other ways to issue early warning information to residents, remind residents to take precautions
Enhance security awareness and build a safety line of defense
In the face of natural disasters such as heavy rains, it is not enough to rely on external help, but more importantly, it is necessary to improve the safety awareness and self-rescue ability of the elderly themselves
Communities can organize and carry out lectures on flood prevention and safety knowledge, through case explanations, on-site demonstrations, etc., to popularize flood prevention safety knowledge and escape skills to the elderly, and family members should also strengthen safety education for the elderly, teach them how to identify dangers, how to avoid dangers, how to save themselves, and improve their safety awareness and emergency response capabilities
