Heat Safety Tips

Stay Hydrated: It’s crucial to stay hydrated during hot weather. Drink plenty of water throughout the day, even if you don’t feel thirsty. Avoid excessive consumption of caffeine, as that can lead to dehydration. Keep Cool: Spend time in air-conditioned areas of the facility, such as the common areas or designated cooling zones. If you have a fan in your room, ensure it functions properly. Avoid direct sunlight and opt for shaded areas when outdoors. Dress Appropriately: Wear lightweight, loose-fitting, and light-colored clothing to help your body regulate its temperature. Don’t forget to wear a wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses when going outside. Limit Outdoor Activities: Avoiding outdoor activities is best during the hottest parts of the day, usually between 10 am and 4 pm. If you need to go outside, try to do so during the cooler hours of the day, like early morning or late evening. Check on Each Other: We encourage all residents to look out for one another. If you notice someone struggling with the heat, inform a staff member immediately so that appropriate assistance can be provided.
