6. Dehydration and Heatstroke
Heatstroke occurs when a person is so dehydrated the body cannot cope. A person with heatstroke may appear confused, have flushed skin and a rapid heartbeat, and show signs of disorientation. If they're severely dehydrated, they may have stopped sweating, even in hot weather.
Heatstroke is a serious condition, and it's important to treat it promptly. Take the person to a shaded area, help them cool down, offer them water to sip slowly and seek professional medical advice.
