From our partners at the Vermont Department of Health: 

Despite concerted efforts to provide continuous prevention and safety messages during the most recent heat wave, tragically we have seen four heat-related deaths.

High heat days will return. We know that some people who are more at risk may have fewer opportunities to stay cool and safe, may have no one to care for them, and may need extra assistance during extreme heat.

We ask you to reach out through your networks to share this information and encourage partner organizations, care providers and volunteers to identify those people at higher risk, and plan to provide enhanced care and check-ins during hot weather.

Who is most at risk?
