How to Keep Safe & Healthy in Cold Weather

During times of extremely cold weather, a few preventive measures taken before the temperature drops or the first snow flake falls can reduce your risk of weather-related health problems. When you’re exposed to cold temperatures, your body begins to lose heat faster than it can produce it. It is important to recognize that cold weather is very dangerous and can lead to serious medical conditions like frostbite and life- threatening hypothermia. May be worse to those who are not accustomed to it or who have certain medical conditions like reduced blood circulation. Your ability to feel a change in temperature decreases with age, and older people are more susceptible to health problems caused by cold. If you are over 65 years old, place an easy-to-read thermometer in an indoor location where you will see it frequently, and check the temperature of your home often during the winter months.-------------Click on the pdf link below to read more--
