Traveling for the holidays can be exhausting for everyone but what if youre vacationing with an older parent or grandparent. There are special considerations that you need to keep in mind. Bob hanson has more. Reporter people of all ages like to travel but as we get older those travel plans can come with complications. Some seniors can travel, they have to take precaution ahead of time and if the doctor says its okay, go for it. Reporter brianne bream is with maxim Companion Services. She says medical care is a top priority when Seniors Travel out of town and its smart to know whats available and what doctors and hospitals are in your network frchif theres a problem.

Malcolm friend is from the pennsylvania madd office and hes here with us this evening. The cdc came out with a study showing fewer teens and young adults are driving drunk but theres a lot of work to be done. Tell us how serious a problem drunk driving is and what madd is doing about it today. Drunk driving continues to be a very important issue, not the least this time of the year as we get into the Holiday Season and with one of the strategies people might think about this year as theyre planning their parties is uber have come out with a new program called uber events and anybody who goes to the uber events page it benefits madd but ties in neatly with our core mission of ending drunk driving. How did you get connected with uber . Did you reach out to them and say you guys have provided a service, it looks like something that could help our mission and what we do and its a good marriage, lets get together . Uber are National Partners for madd and have been for some time. The reason is they clearly provide one more option for people to plan ahead and not have to drive on the roads drunk and try to put that into some kind of parameters here. If the link was filled 80 , that would equate the number of people who have been arrested for dui in pennsylvania alone in the last year so we would love to see people plan ahead, use a Ride Share Service like uber, book a hotel rather than drive drunk this Holiday Season. Let me be clear here. Is it always free with uber . I know theres some communities who are providing uber free for people using their bars and restaurants over the holidays or is it free across the board with madd over the Holiday Season using uber. Its not a free service. And its a particular partnership and particular area of the uber site grow to to partner up with madd. Youre encouraging people to tie one on. What does that mean . Tie one on for safety. Red ribbons tied very neatly, dont drink and drive this Holiday Season. You can get one of these from madd directly, through madd. Org. Tie it to your vehicle somewhere as a simple reminder, tie one on for safety, dont drink and drive. Plan ahead. Just a reminder for those who are drinking and driving, its tied to your car handle or your wrist that youll remember. Tie it near on your vehicle, make that memory. We dont want people drinking and driving. We appreciate the information you brought us and hopefully it will keep people safe during the Holiday Season. Thank you. Thank you very much. For more information on how madd is helping to make the Holiday Season a safer one, go to our web site at nbc10. Com or check out the nbc 10 app. You can also get information there about the Uber Partnership and if you or a loved one become involved in the crash caused by an impaired driver you can reach out to Victims Services with this help line, its 877maddhelp.

Here are the sustained winds now ranging up to 24 miles an hour sustained in philadelphia and in trenton. Thats pretty strong winds. And its going to bring in a little bit cooler air.

But then it doesnt last because here we go. Early next week the mild air comes right back and it stays with us through the week, we could see record warmth for Christmas Eve, for example, and still warm on Christmas Day. Things are pretty quiet today. We have some fair weather clouds coming in with those westerly winds. But as we go into thursday, things will be changing.

Besides arnie. Xarelto® is proven to treat and help reduce the risk of dvt and pe blood clots. Xarelto® is also proven to reduce the risk of stroke in people with afib, not caused by a heart valve problem. For people with afib currently well managed on warfarin, theres limited information on how xarelto® and warfarin compare in reducing the risk of stroke. You know, i tried warfarin, but the blood testing and dietary restrictions. Dont get me started on that. I didnt have to. We started on xarelto®. Nice pass. Safety first. Like all blood thinners, dont stop taking xarelto® without talking to your doctor, as this may increase your risk of a blood clot or stroke. While taking, you may bruise more easily and it may take longer for bleeding to stop. Xarelto® may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. Xarelto® can cause serious, and in rare cases, fatal bleeding. Get help right away for unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. If you have had spinal anesthesia while on xarelto®, watch for back pain or any nerve or muscle related signs or symptoms. Do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. Tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. Before starting xarelto®, tell your doctor about any kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. You know xarelto® is the 1 prescribed blood thinner in its class. Thats a big win. It is for me. With xarelto® there is no regular blood monitoring and no known dietary restrictions. Treatment with xarelto®. Was the right move for us. Ask your doctor about xarelto®.
