1. Stay Hydrated - Dehydration is another safety concern during the sumer months. Be sure to drink enough liquids throughout the day, as our bodies can lose a lot of water through perspiration when it gets hot out.
2. Protect Your Skin - Use a sunscreen 30 minutes before going out. Reapply sunscreen every two hours or after swimming or sweating. Limit sun exposure during the peak intensity hours - between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Stay in the shade whenever possible.
3. Water Safety - Remember to always have adult supervision for children. Whether they're in the pool or playing in the sand by the seashore, having someone who can help them - should an emergency arise - is essential.
4. Eye Safety - The sun's ultraviolet (UV) light can harm the eyes. Wear sunglasses year-round whenever you are out in the sun. Sun damage to the eyes can occur any time of year. Choose shades that block 99 to 100 percent of both UVA and UVB light.
5. Sports Safety - Not only can injuries happen, but in heat exhaustion and dehydration can happen more often in the summer months. It helps to be conditioned to the activities in which we're preparing to engage. Warm up, stretch, gear up, go with a buddy, and remember to cool down and stretch afterwards.
