Colleagues,<\/p>\n
Please read the following message that contains some helpful tips for preventing heat-related illness.<\/p>\n
Wear Appropriate Clothing<\/strong> — Choose lightweight, light-colored, loose-fitting clothing.<\/p>\n Stay Cool Indoors<\/strong> — Stay in an air-conditioned place as much as possible. If your home does not have air conditioning, go to the mall or public library.<\/p>\n Schedule Outdoor Activities Carefully<\/strong> — Try to limit your outdoor activity to when it’s coolest, like morning and evening hours. Rest often in shady areas.<\/p>\n Pace Yourself<\/strong> — Cut down on exercise during the heat. If you are not accustomed to working or exercising in a hot environment, start slowly and pick up the pace gradually.<\/p>\n Wear Sunscreen<\/strong> — Sunburn affects your body’s ability to cool down and can make you dehydrated. If you must go outdoors, protect yourself from the sun by wearing a wide-brimmed hat and putting on sunscreen.<\/p>\n Do Not Leave Children in Cars<\/strong> — Cars can quickly heat up to dangerous levels. While anyone left in a parked car is at risk, children are especially at risk.<\/p>\n Avoid Hot and Heavy Meals<\/strong> — They add heat to your body.<\/p>\n Drink Plenty of Fluids<\/strong> — Regardless of how thirsty you are, drink more fluids.<\/p>\n Keep Your Pets Safe<\/strong>: Never leave your pet unattended in your vehicle. Keep your pets hydrated with plenty of fresh water in a shady area.<\/p>\n Wishing all a safe and happy summer!<\/p>\n Clem Campana <\/p>\n Published:<\/strong>\u00a0Wed, 30 Jun 2021 14:00:18 +0000 by\u00a0c.campana<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Colleagues, Please read the following message that contains some helpful tips for preventing heat-related illness.
