Keeping Cool.

Keep blinds down and windows closed when it's cooler inside than out.
Most medication should be kept below 25°C – so it can be best to keep it in the fridge when it's really hot.
Check your skin for changes every few months. If you notice that a mole has changed colour or shape or has been bleeding, go and talk to your doctor.
Drink plenty of water to avoid getting dehydrated, but avoid alcohol as it can dehydrate you.
Drink plenty to avoid getting dehydrated and keep eating even if you’re not feeling too hungry. It can be best to avoid alcohol.
A damp cloth or a splash of water on the back of your neck can be better at cooling you down than a fan.
Open windows on opposite sides of the home during cooler times (early morning or late evening) to create cross-ventilation.
Keep blinds or curtains closed during the day, especially on sun-facing windows, to block out heat.
Limit the use of ovens and stoves during the hottest parts of the day to reduce indoor heat.

What should I do if I get dehydrated?

Extreme heat and dry conditions can cause you to overheat and make you dehydrated, which means you've lost more fluid than you're taking in.

You don't have to feel thirsty to be dehydrated.
