The climate of Rancho Santa Fe is, for the most part, typical of the San Diego metropolitan area, though the higher elevation and inland location tends to lend itself to higher temperature variation. Additionally, Rancho Santa Fe is notable for being one of only a few places in suburban San Diego to receive snowfall, the last of which occurred on February 26–27, 2011.
It is these changes in the weather that sometimes pose a problem for the elderly community. In summer there are risks from dehydration and sunburn, however, in winter there are the risks of hypothermia and falls cause by slippery surfaces. To make life safer for an elderly loved one a caregiver can provide home care in Rancho Santa Fe and advise on various safety and lifestyle issues.
Rancho Santa Fe is only a small community. Sometimes it is necessary to visit stores or medical facilities outside of the town. Supplies or shopping must sometimes be done outside the town. If you are receiving home care then a caregiver can help you with these.
Before leaving the home, whether on an excursion or visit to the doctors, a caregiver will always make sure you are safe and comfortable. There might possibly be extra equipment that needs taking with you when you leave the house, such as walking aids, medication or breathing apparatus.
The beauty of home care in Rancho Santa Fe is the beauty of the community itself. Due to the fact that Rancho Santa Fe has many strict architectural design codes the community always manages to keep its rustic charm.
For seniors with more energy, or friends and family of seniors receiving home care in Rancho Santa Fe, there is an excellent opportunity for a stroll in the nearby San Elijo Lagoon Ecological Reserve. The reserve has many miles of self guided trails and a visitors center complete with exhibits and local information. Obviously care must be taken when walking on the trails as they will not be smooth concreted pavements, this may cause problems for the unsteady or make it dificult to use various walking aids. Finally, you must never push yourself too much. A caregiver will know your limits, when they are reached you can simply sit down, possibly with some binoculars, and look out for the approximate 300 species of birdlife.
