Staying Safe
 
in
 
the
Heat
 
Stay
cool
indoors
 
by
closing curtains
 
in
rooms
 
 
that
face
 
the
sun.
Drink
plenty
 
of
fluids.
Don't
leave anyone
in
 
a
locked
vehicle.
Keep
out of
 
the
sun
between
11am
 
and
3pm
 
when
 
the
sun's rays
are
strongest.
Use
sunscreen
with
 
a
high
 
SPF
 
and
 
UVA
rating.
Wear
 
a
wide
brimmed hat.
 
Avoid
physical
exercise
 
in
 
the
hottest
part of
 
the
day.
Take
water
with
you
if
travelling.
Be
aware
 
of
hidden
dangers
 
and
open water.
Do not
be
tempted
 
to
cool
 
off
 
in
rivers.
Look out
for
older people,
 
those
with
underlying conditions
 
and
those
 
who
live
alone.
