Heat stroke is the most serious heat-related illness. It happens when your body's ability to sweat fails and your temperature rises to a dangerous level. Heat stroke can cause permanent disability or death if the person doesn't receive emergency treatment. Someone may be having heat stroke if they are confused; slurring their speech; have lost consciousness; have hot, dry skin; or a very high body temperature. To treat someone with heat stroke:
1. Call 911
2. Move the person to a shaded, cool area and remove any outer clothing
3. Cool them quickly using cold water or an ice bath, wetting the skin, placing cold wet cloths on the skin, and/or soaking their clothing with cold water
4. Place cold wet cloths or ice on the head, neck, armpits, and groin
