summer heat
Hot Summer WeatherJuly 17th, 2010 - High temperatures aren't only dangerous for firefighters, the heat of summer can be hard on all of us. But heat affects the elderly and the young quicker than most. Monitor newborns and infants frequently, and check on elderly people in your neighborhood from time to time. They cannot regulate their body temperature as well as average adults, so they are more susceptible to the heat.
If you will be working outside, take frequent breaks and drink sufficient fluids. Heat cramps, heat exhaustion, and heat stroke can develop quickly. If you have chest pain, become dizzy, light headed, or have trouble breathing, stop working immediately and call 911. Staying out of the heat and drinking plenty of fluids are the best prevention from heat related illness.
