What should the elderly pay attention to when traveling?

What should the elderly pay attention to when traveling? Many families will take the young and old to travel during this period. However, the physical strength and physical condition of the elderly are not as good as those of the young, so we should take precautions during the travel. Let me explain the precautions for the elderly to travel.

Matters needing attention in elderly tourism

In the eyes of many young children, the elderly are the easiest to be deceived. Therefore, the elderly should beware of "flickering" when going out. I have specially arranged some travel precautions for the elderly, and my elderly friends may wish to have a look.

1, take the old card. At present, the ticket prices of scenic spots in various places are generally not low, but many places have free or semi-free tickets with senior citizen cards.

2. The station is hooked. In front of railway stations in many tourist towns, there are tour guides under the banner of a hotel, tourists with "preferential" accommodation, and taxis that "kill you without consultation". Don't be soft-hearted to them, don't be credulous and don't ignore them. If the taxi driver is found to be "slaughtered" (bypassing, not hitting the meter, hitting the meter), be sure to ask him to issue an invoice, write down the car number and supervision phone number to facilitate complaints.

3. Beware of fake tour guides. When traveling, don't be deceived by "wild guides" near scenic spots and stations for the sake of cheapness.

4. Pay attention to where to eat. During the trip, most restaurants "recommended" by tour guides are neither delicious nor cost-effective. If you want to solve the problem of eating by yourself, you can choose a restaurant with a more formal appearance near the scenic spot and eat something light and delicious.

5. Do it when it's time to do it. Everyone wants to have fun and save money when traveling, but saving money is more important than fitness for the frail old people. Therefore, when taking a taxi, don't choose to walk to save money.

6, shopping is to distinguish between true and false. When shopping in "fixed-point" stores, the elderly should be alert to ginseng, bird's nest, medicinal materials and other commodities, and also know some "common sense" about some attractive commodities to judge whether they are true or false. Don't go shopping for "face"

7. Always bring your supplies. When the elderly go out, they should take the medicine they can't live without every day, take good care of their belongings, and check carefully when they check out during the trip. Don't leave them in the bathroom, drawer or under the pillow.

What diseases should the elderly pay attention to when traveling?

First, fainting. Don't move the patient when the old man suddenly fainted. First, observe whether the patient's heartbeat and breathing are abnormal. If the heartbeat and breathing are normal, pat the patient and wake him up loudly. If the patient does not respond, it means that the situation is serious and should be sent to the hospital for emergency treatment immediately.

Second, cardiogenic asthma. Fatigue running often induces or aggravates cardiogenic asthma. The clinical manifestations of cardiogenic asthma are cough, wheezing and dyspnea. When cardiogenic asthma attacks, the patient should take a semi-recumbent position first, and then bind the patient's three limbs with a cloth belt once every 5 minutes, which can reduce the burden on the heart.

Third, angina pectoris. Angina pectoris is mostly caused by fatigue, satiety, excitement and cold. Therefore, patients with a history of angina pectoris should take first-aid drugs when traveling. If angina occurs during the journey, let him sit up and take nitroglycerin quickly under his tongue, and at the same time take drugs such as Musk Baoxin Pills or Subing Dropping Pills to relieve his condition.

Fourth, acute gastroenteritis. Due to unclean food or drinking water during the journey, it is easy to cause various acute intestinal diseases.

The above are the precautions for the elderly to travel. I remind my old friends to pay attention to safety when traveling. You should be accompanied when traveling. It is not advisable to go out alone. Don't climb too high to avoid accidents. Old people with chronic diseases should prepare emergency medicine when they go out, and the treatment of the original disease cannot be interrupted. Finally, I wish my old friends a pleasant journey!
