Protecting The Elderly From Extreme Winter Weather And Snow
We know how winters can get! We have to keep ourselves prepped with safe ice melt products from snow-laden streets to icy driveways to help us make it through without any trouble. So we are often caught up with our kids, homes, and pets that we end up forgetting about the elderly at home or ones staying in care homes.
Winters can get brutal for the elderly because the chances of them falling or slipping are much higher as they grow old. Therefore, protecting them during these times is of top priority for everyone. By investing in safe ice melt, we take the first step to address this challenge and make their lives easier.
While we have ice melt safe for pets and kids, we have to ensure our parents and the elderly do not get hurt with the different deicers available in the market.
How To Protect Elderly From Extreme Winter Weather And Snow?
- Clearing The Driveway
Deploying people or community helpers to clear their driveway during a snowstorm can be of great help! We can use eco-friendly deicers such as Safe Paw before a snowstorm hits and help them shovel the place after it passes. If they have pets, having an ice melt safe for pets will ease their woes of taking the pet to a vet in case they get injured.
- Insulated Homes
Having a well-insulated home is another excellent way to stay away from the chilly winters inside your house. A contractor can install in-built insulators inside the house that will keep the cold winter weather at bay.

- Deicers
The easiest choice for any older adult is to use deicing salts to help clear the sidewalks and patio quickly. Most deicers comprise 99% chloride salts and 1% CMA, making them a viable option. However, the long-term repercussions are too many to handle. We must help the elderly choose the proper ice melt or buy it so that they and their surroundings are not harmed.

- Traction Agents
In addition to deicing agents, all older adults should have a handy traction agent to help them walk on any slippery icy surface. They are not heavy or inconvenient to carry and prove very useful in freezing conditions. Since we cannot see black ice, it isn’t easy to figure where you might step on it, and this is where a great traction agent such as Safe Paw comes in handy too.
Conclusion
Safe Paw is a dual-patented compound comprising carbonyl diamide and special glycols that help break the surface tension, making it easy for anyone to walk. Since it has all-natural ingredients, it is an ice melt safe for pets too. From warm clothes, a good fireplace to insulated ceilings and floors, the elderly need to have snow-removal equipment handy at all times.
We can come forward to help them procure it along with a bag of Safe Paw so that they spend their winters comfortably wherever they are!
