Tanning: It Does the Body Good

Due to the rise in melanoma cases, tanning – both outdoors and indoors – has garnered a bad reputation. Movies such as “There’s Something About Mary” openly mock overly tan people, portraying them with leathery skin and deep wrinkles. Additionally, a recent public service announcement featuring several prominent (and nearly nude) celebrities ends with the warning, “If you leave the house without sunscreen, you might as well be naked.” However, moderate use of tanning beds can actually have a beneficial impact on your health.

Falls and Fractures – Make Your Home Safe

You can help prevent falls by making changes to unsafe areas in your home.

In stairways, hallways, and pathways:

  • Make sure there is good lighting with light switches at the top and bottom of the stairs.
  • Keep areas where you walk tidy.
  • Check that all carpets are fixed firmly to the floor so they won’t slip. Put no-slip strips on tile and wooden floors. You can buy these strips at the hardware store.
