Heat Safety Tips
(From the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention)
~Drink more fluids, regardless of your activity level. Don't wait until your thirsty.
~Don't drink liquids that contain alcohol or large amounts of sugar-these actually cause you to lose more body fluids.
~Limit your time outdoors to early morning and evening hours. Take frequent breaks!
~Wear lightweight, light-colored, loose-fitting clothing.
~NEVER leave ANYONE in a parked vehicle.
~Stay indoors in an air-conditioned place. Fans are not enough when the temperatures are in the high 90's. If your home is not air-conditioned, visit a mall, library or your local YMCA or recreation center!
~Check on your friends, especially seniors!
