Beat the Heat

We have a grand total of 4 patients this morning, none of whom need OT. I'll be making my afternoon rounds to Birch ward, but they've been quiet this week too. One of our 4 patients this morning, bless, has been complaining of being cold and asking for blankets. Everyone kind of looked at her in disbelief when she first started saying she was cold.

So, Allison's beat the heat plan:
-Don't start running training the week of temps in the 90s, when you have no AC to come home to! A bit of a captain obvious thing there I guess.
-Drink lots of water.
-After informing your housemates, feel free to wander around in bra and underwear, or less.
-Cold showers as needed.
-Cold packs for the back of your neck.
-Have a fan directly on you at night and forget the pajamas! Also, I need to buy some cotton sheets, the jersey ones are killing me.
-And finally, buy some white polo tshirts which we're allowed to wear at work when it's over 80 degrees or so, instead of the stupid tunics!
-Leave London!!! Done- Headed out on Friday.
