A heat wave or cold snap can affect everyone in a shared home. A few practical checks can help residents stay safer and support one another:
• Dress in layers so you can adjust comfortably as temperatures change. Include warm socks, a coat, and dry clothing for cold conditions.
• Keep water nearby during hot weather. For colder days, have warming supplies such as blankets, gloves, and warm, nonalcoholic drinks available.
• Ask a pharmacist or prescribing professional whether any medication needs special storage during extreme heat or cold. Do not change how you take medication without qualified guidance.
• Communicate early. Let a trusted housemate or support contact know if you feel unwell, need assistance, or plan to leave during severe weather.
• Seek qualified help promptly for confusion, fainting, trouble breathing, chest pain, severe weakness, signs of heat illness, or possible hypothermia. Call 911 or your local emergency service for urgent symptoms.
For the reentry/fixed-income/40+ housing project, the program rate is $297/week.
This checklist is general safety information, not medical advice. Follow local weather guidance and contact a qualified professional when you have concerns.
