Keep Cool! Protect Your Health When It’s Hot!
• Drink plenty of water. Avoid alcohol and caffeine.
• Wear a wide-brimmed hat, or use an umbrella for shade.
• Wear lightweight, light-colored, loose clothing.
• Slow down—rest in the shade or a cool place when possible.
• Never leave a child, elderly, disabled person, or animal alone in a vehicle.
• Check on your friends and neighbors who are elderly or have medical conditions or at higher risk for problems when it is very hot.
• If you do not have an air conditioner, use a fan, make sure your windows are open and visit a cool center.
• Take a cool shower or bath.
• When it is hotter than 90 degrees, visit a friend with air conditioning or some place cool like a mall, a library or a senior center.
• Turn on your air conditioner
You are also at risk if you have certain medical conditions, take medication for high blood pressure, have a mental health condition, have been using drugs or alcohol, or have had a previous heat-related illness.
