With the extreme heat we have been experiencing lately we all need to be aware of heat exhaustion & heat stroke symptoms. Granville County EMS visited the Granville County Senior Center in Oxford today & the North Granville Senior Center in Stovall last week to present “Stay Cool, Stay Well.” This program covered heat stroke vs stroke, heat exhaustion and more ways to keep cool during extreme heat days. Partnerships like this help us provide programs that bring important information to our older adults. Thank you GC EMS for bringing us this great program!
