From JoAnne Spoto Decker, Commissioner: (6/21/2025)
According to reports from the National Weather Service, the upcoming next days will bring severe hot weather to our region. The Post Standard article published today (6/21) stated "The first big heat wave of 2025 has arrived, coinciding with the official start of summer".
The staff of Adult and Long Term Care Services takes this very seriously and is providing "Extreme Heat Resources-Helpful information for Older Adults and Caregivers to Stay Safe in the Heat". This information was provided by New York State Office for the Aging, but the safety tips apply to all ages.
