Extreme heat - how can you protect yourself? DVG - Deutscher Verein für Gesundheitspflege e.V. invites you to a lecture on dealing with extreme heat - protecting your health in hot times
The speaker, Dr. Achim Noltze, a specialist in physical and rehabilitative medicine, gives helpful and easy-to-implement tips on how to keep a cool head.
We are increasingly experiencing exceptionally hot days, which are not only unpleasant but can also be hazardous to health. Older people, children, pregnant women and people with pre-existing medical conditions are particularly at risk. But everyone can do something to protect themselves.
In this lecture you will learn
✅ What health risks arise from extreme heat
✅How you can effectively protect yourself and others
✅ What "heat prevention" means in concrete terms (drinking habits, clothing, daily routine)
✅ How you can support people at risk (e.g. neighbors, relatives)
✅ What to do in an emergency
✅ Helpful and easy-to-implement tips for everyday life - even without air conditioning
After the presentation, you will have the opportunity to ask questions and share your own experiences.
