Summer is upon us with this beautiful and warm weather; remember your sun safety tips & be aware of heat-related illnesses. Signs of heat exhaustion include pale or red skin, dizziness, nausea, moist skin, weakness, exhaustion and a normal or raised body temperature. 1. Drink plenty of cool fluids — this is the most important step you can take. 2. Know the humidex rating — it combines the temperature and humidity to indicate how hot, humid weather feels to the average person. 3. Wear light, loose clothing to let air circulate and heat escape and always wear a hat. 4. Apply sunscreen (with SPF 15 or higher) as sunburned skin reduces the body’s ability to cool itself. 5. Slow down your activities as it gets hotter and don’t work, exercise, or play for too long at a time. 6. Take a lot of breaks in a cool or shady area to let your body cool off. This will help if you do need to be outside when it’s really hot.
