Cold Temperature Exposure - Prevention

(continued)

continued...

Older or less active people can prevent indoor hypothermia by dressing warmly while indoors and keeping room temperatures above 65�F (18�C).

Be aware that some states fund programs to help low-income families add insulation or "weatherize" their homes to keep the family warm. Also, some low-income families may qualify for help in paying their heating bills. Contact your state or local energy agency or the local power or gas company for more information.
