As temperatures continue to rise across our city, protecting older New Yorkers is one of our highest priorities. I spent this morning at the Carter Burden Covello Older Adult Center communing with older New Yorkers and sharing simple ways to stay safe during this dangerous heat wave.
It was a powerful reminder that cooling centers aren't just places to escape the heat — they're places where New Yorkers can come together, stay safe, and look out for one another during dangerous weather.
As this heat wave continues, let's make sure older New Yorkers have the support they need to stay safe. If you or someone around you is experiencing trouble breathing, a rapid heartbeat, dizziness, nausea, confusion, or other signs of heat illness, call 911 immediately.
Staying cool saves lives. Cooling centers are open across the five boroughs.
