Heat exhaustion can cause symptoms such as dizziness, thirst, heavy sweating, nausea, and weakness. If someone shows these signs, act fast by moving the person to a cooler area, loosening their clothing, having them sip cool water, and seeking medical help if the symptoms do not improve. Heat exhaustion can progress to heat stroke if not treated quickly.

Heat stroke is extremely dangerous and may involve confusion, dizziness, or loss of consciousness. If you suspect heat stroke, act immediately and call 911. Move the person to a cooler area, loosen clothing and remove extra layers, and cool the person with water or ice.

Stay cool, stay hydrated, and stay informed.
