•   Slow down! Your body can’t function as well in high temperatures.
•   Cool down in a cool store, public library, or community pool.
•   Shade heads and faces with a loose-fitting ventilated hat or umbrella outdoors.
•   Dress appropriately in lightweight, light-coloured, and loose-fitting clothing.
•   Avoid getting sunburned. It decreases the body’s ability to cool.
•   Never leave infants, children or pets inside a parked vehicle.
•   Remember to check on elderly family members, neighbours and friends to make sure they are comfortable and safe.For more information on heat waves and how to stay safe visit: https://www.getprepared.gc.ca/cnt/rsrcs/sfttps/tp201207-eng.aspx
