Case Studies Offering HEATWAVE Emergency Preparedness Planning For Care, Nursing and Residential Homes.
"Most of us enjoy sunny weather, but extreme heat can seriously damage your health. During a heatwave, when temperatures stay really high day after day, it can sometimes be fatal."
Extreme heat is dangerous to everyone, ESPECIALLY OLDER PEOPLE, AND ESPECIALLY THOSE LIVING IN CARE HOMES. During a heatwave, when temperatures remain abnormally high for longer than a couple of days, it can prove fatal and climate change means that heatwaves are likely to become more common in England. In one hot nine-day period in south-east England in August 2003, there were nearly 2,000 extra deaths. The biggest increase in risk of death was among those in care homes.
NHS trusts and care, nursing and residential homes are raising awareness among staff about the very significant heat-related health risks.
The government has identified high-risk groups who are vulnerable to the effects of heat are physiologically unable to cool themselves efficiently once temperatures rise above 26ºC. Therefore, every care, nursing and residential home should be able to provide a room or area that maintains a temperature of 26ºC or below.
