Hatzoloh Warns Public to Exercise Caution in Heat
By Betzalel Kahn
In light of unusually hot weather forecasts for the coming
days in Eretz Yisroel, Hatzoloh Yisroel is reminding
the public to adhere to heat-safety guidelines to avoid harm
resulting from heat stroke, sunstroke, sunburn, and other
heat- related dangers.
Hatzoloh notes the importance of drinking ample liquids,
saying that just in the past few days volunteers have been
summoned to treat dozens of people who fainted or felt ill
due to heat and dehydration.
In all cases of emergency in Israel call Magen David Adom by
dialing 101. Volunteer Hatzoloh medics are also alerted
through that call and will arrive immediately, and an
ambulance will also be dispatched to the scene of the
emergency.
