Please check on the older adults in your life. Be safe.
Warmer temperatures are returning to central Indiana.
As we spend more time outdoors over the next several days, it’s important to remember that heat-related illnesses can affect anyone.
Whether you’re working in the yard, playing sports, coaching, attending outdoor events, or spending the day outside, take a few simple precautions:
💧 Drink plenty of water throughout the day
🌳 Take breaks in the shade or air conditioning
👕 Wear lightweight, light-colored clothing
🧴 Use sunscreen and protective clothing
👶 Check on children, older adults, and those without air conditioning
🚗 Never leave children or pets in a parked vehicle
Know the warning signs of heat exhaustion, including heavy sweating, dizziness, nausea, headache, weakness, and muscle cramps.
Stay safe, stay hydrated, and enjoy the warmer weather.
