Boulevard Wentzville Summer Safety Tips

As summer heats up, we at The Boulevard Senior Living of Wentzville prioritize maintaining a safe and comfortable environment for our older adult residents. Rising temperatures present unique challenges, especially in our senior living community, where residents are more vulnerable to heat-related issues. Our maintenance team follows some essential safety measures to ensure a safe, smooth-running, and pleasant summer for everyone.

We inspect air conditioning units regularly to ensure they function correctly and replace air filters to maintain air quality. Thermostats are set at comfortable temperatures, and cooling is monitored in common areas and resident rooms.

Team’s Maintenance and Safety Measures

• Provide shaded seating in outdoor areas
• Inspect and repair walkways to prevent trips
• Increase pest control to keep areas free from insects
• Check ventilation in common areas and kitchens
• Inspect electrical systems to prevent overloads
• Clean roofs and gutters to avoid leaks and water damage

We educate residents on staying hydrated and avoiding peak heat hours by distributing flyers and holding meetings. We also promote indoor events during extreme heat to keep residents engaged and safe.
