⚠ Temperatures are expected to remain extremely high over the coming days 🌡

Heat-related illness can affect anyone and prolonged exposure to hot weather can worsen existing health conditions.

To help keep yourself safe:

☂ Stay in the shade during the hottest part of the day (11am to 3pm).
💦 Drink plenty of fluids throughout the day.
😎 Wear sunscreen, sunglasses and light, loose-fitting clothing.
🏡 Keep indoor spaces as cool as possible by closing curtains and blinds during the day.

Taking simple steps now can help you avoid becoming unwell and ensure ambulance crews remain available for people facing life-threatening emergencies.

It’s diabetes awareness week and we couldn’t have done a better job than our colleagues with their fine tuned funny bone or two in getting the message across…

🚑💙 IT'S DIABETES WEEK! 💙🚑

This Diabetes Week, we're swapping sirens for a little bit of lifesaving education.

Diabetes affects millions of people across the UK, and knowing how to recognise a diabetic emergency could help save a life.

🔵 Low Blood Sugar (Hypoglycaemia)
Signs may include:
✔️ Shaking
✔️ Sweating
✔️ Confusion
✔️ Dizziness
✔️ Irritability

If they're awake and able to swallow, give fast-acting sugar and monitor their response.

🔴 High Blood Sugar (Hyperglycaemia)
Signs may include:
✔️ Extreme thirst
✔️ Frequent trips to the loo
✔️ Tiredness
✔️ Blurred vision
✔️ Feeling unwell

Encourage water and seek medical advice if symptoms worsen.

⚠️ Remember: If someone is unconscious, having a seizure, or you're unsure what's wrong:

📞 Call 999 immediately
🚫 Never give food or drink to an unconscious person.

A little knowledge today could make a huge difference tomorrow.

💙 This Diabetes Week, take a moment to learn the signs, share this post, and help spread awareness. The best emergency is the one prevented by someone knowing what to do.
