HEAT RELATED ILLNESS
With the return of warmer weather, Alberta Health Services EMS would like to remind citizens to stay safe in
the heat and sun this summer. While children and the
elderly can be more susceptible to the effects of heat,
basic prevention measures should be taken by all to
avoid a heat related illness during periods of hot and
humid weather.
FIRST AID
Heat exhaustion
• Heat exhaustion can occur due to excessive fluid loss
during periods of prolonged sweating in a hot and / or
humid environment (indoors or outdoors).
• Patients may suffer headaches, weakness, fatigue, nausea / vomiting, thirst, chills, and profuse sweating.
• The patient is usually cold and damp to the touch and
the skin may appear pale or dusky gray.
Heat stroke
• Heat stroke is a medical emergency that requires
prompt treatment. It can be fatal.
• It occurs when the body can’t cool itself naturally (e.g.
perspiration). The body’s temperature will continue to
rise to dangerous levels.
• Due to severe dehydration and the inability to sweat
the patient may appear flushed and skin may be hot
and dry to the touch.
First aid
• First aid for all heat related illness begins with removing or sheltering the patient from the hot environment.
• Remove excess or tight fitting clothing and allow them
to rest in a cool environment.
• If the patient is conscious and alert, provide suitable
fluids such as water, juice, or a sports drink.
If you are concerned, seek medical attention or call 9-1-1.
Prevention
• Stay well-hydrated by drinking plenty of water.
• Limit alcohol consumption as alcohol dehydrates you.
• Always wear a broad brimmed hat to keep the sun off
your face and neck.
• Apply waterproof sunscreen with an SPF of 50+, especially for children. The sun’s UV rays peak between
10am-4pm, even on cloudy days. ~continued next page~

FOSTERING SAFE COMMUNITIES
Dog owners play a large role in providing a safe environment for service providers, such as meter readers from
ENMAX and ATCO Gas and mail carriers from Canada
Post, who enter and exit properties on a daily basis.
Ways dog owners can help:
• Inspect fences and gates to ensure that dogs can’t get
out. A spring loaded gate that will shut if it is blown
open by the wind is ideal because it prevents a dog
from escaping.
• Supervise your dog when he is in your yard. Dogs
need to be under their owners’ control and not pose a
threat to service providers. If a service provider needs
access to your yard, bring your dog inside or put him
in an enclosed run outside.
• Dogs cannot be tethered in your yard when no one is
home. You must either place the dog in an enclosed
dog run or leave him inside the house.
• Train your dog to stop barking at service providers
who make regular visits. Consult a professional trainer
or behaviourist for tips on how to reduce your dog’s
excitement or anxiety towards visitors to your home.
Help prevent injuries to service providers by keeping
your yard tidy and your pets under control.
