Cookouts, pool days, picnics, hikes—sound familiar? Sunnier summer days mean more time outside to recharge or connect with our friends and family. However, before you head out the door without your water bottle, it’s important to prepare against the health effects of rising temperatures.
As we age, we grow more susceptible to heat-related illnesses. Known as hyperthermia, these health issues range from mild cramps to dehydration and even heat stroke. According to the National Institute of Health, individuals over 50 comprise the majority of yearly deaths from hyperthermia. Understanding how our bodies change as we get older can help ourselves and our loved ones better prepare for emergencies.

Other lifestyle factors that increase our risk for hyperthermia include:
Remember, this list isn’t limited to those who are older – make sure everyone you spend time in the sun with stays safe!
If you think you or someone you know is suffering from a heat-related illness:
During hot weather, think about making daily visits to older relatives and neighbors. Remind them to drink lots of water and offer to help them go to a cool, air-conditioned place. Look out for each other this and every season!
