Signs of illness include headache\, dizziness\, nausea\, heavy sweating\, confusion\, and pale or flushed skin. \nThe CDC recommends the below tips to help prevent heat-related illnesses in the elderly: \n\nStay in air-conditioned buildings as much as possible—don’t rely on fans as the only cooling source during extreme heat.\nStay well hydrated by drinking water or sports drinks.  Avoid drinks with caffeine and alcohol\, and don’t wait until feeling thirsty before beginning hydration. \nLimit using the stove or oven for cooking during times of extreme heat.\nWear loose\, lightweight\, and light-colored clothing.\nTake cool showers or baths to cool down.\nLimit strenuous outdoor activities and get plenty of rest.\n\nAccording to the CDC\, Symptoms of heat-related complications and illnesses include: \n\nHigh body temperature (103°F or higher)\nHot\, red\, dry\, or damp skin\nFast\, strong pulse\nHeadache\nDizziness\nNausea\nConfusion\nLosing consciousness (passing out)\n\nSome factors that might increase your risk of developing a heat-related illness include: Obesity\, existing fever\, heart disease\, mental illness\, poor circulation\, sunburn\, diuretics\, sedatives\, tranquilizers\, and other prescription drugs. \nWhat to do: \n\n Call 911 immediately—heat stroke requires urgent medical attention.\n Move the person to a cooler location.\nLower the person’s body temperature with cool cloths or a cool bath.\nAsk 911 before offering the person fluids to drink – when someone is experiencing a heat stroke\, their body’s ability to regulate temperature is severely compromised. Offering fluids to drink can potentially worsen the situation by causing them to choke or aspirate due to altered mental status or impaired swallowing reflexes. In addition\, there is a risk that drinking fluids could lead to electrolyte imbalances or further exacerbate the heat stroke. Therefore\, it’s important to focus on cooling the person down and seek immediate medical assistance rather than giving them fluids orally.\n\nStay cool and help check in on our older adults. \nPlease note that some medications can cause increased side effects in extreme heat. If you have any questions or concerns\, it’s best to check with your doctor or pharmacist.
