With the excessive heat warning today from 11am to 9pm please be extra cautious today. Heat stroke can happen to anyone! If you start to not feel well dizzy, lightheaded, hot let someone know and start to cool down! #heatsafety #coolfirsttransportsecond
We may never need this but the day we do, it can save a life. #CoolFirstTransportSecond #HeatIllnessSafety #GoBerries

Heat stroke is 100% survivable IF the proper treatment is employed. Rapid cold water immersion is the gold standard and should be a part of your plan. #coolfirsttransportsecond youtu.be/ZFjH6Zmo59A
With summer temps being hot and humid already, make sure you are hydrating and eating enough throughout the day. Heat stroke is real and can be deadly. If you start to feel overheated, dizzy, nauseous start cooling down immediately. #CoolFirstTransportSecond #HeatSafety
