🌞☀️ Embrace the First Day of Summer, but Stay Safe in the Heat! ☀️🌞

Hello everyone! Today marks the official start of summer, and while we're all excited for sunny days and outdoor fun, it's crucial to remember to stay safe in the heat. Here are some tips to beat the heat and recognize heat emergencies:

🔥 Heat Exhaustion Signs: Keep an eye out for excessive sweating, fatigue, dizziness, and muscle cramps. If you or someone you know shows these symptoms, move to a cool place, hydrate, and rest.

🚑 Heat Stroke Signs: This is a medical emergency! Look for high body temperature, hot and dry skin (not sweating), confusion, nausea, and rapid pulse. Call 911 immediately if you suspect someone has heat stroke.

🥤 Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day, even if you don't feel thirsty. Avoid alcohol and caffeine, as they can dehydrate you.

👒 Dress Wisely: Wear lightweight, light-colored, and loose-fitting clothing to help keep cool.

🏠 Seek Shade: Limit outdoor activities during peak sun hours (10 am - 4 pm) and take breaks in the shade or indoors.

Let's make this summer a safe and enjoyable one for everyone! Take care of yourselves and each other. 🌴🍹
