High Heat Alert – Health Advisory
The National Weather Service has forecasted high temperatures for today and tomorrow, with Heat Advisories and Air Quality alerts posted across the State. The Department of Health reminds facilities and providers to review the attached Alert and take appropriate precautions to ensure the safety of residents and patients during this event. All licensed and regulated providers are also reminded to report any disruption of services or infrastructure or indoor temperatures outside of regulatory ranges to the New York State Department of Health Surge Operations Center at (917) 909-2676.
This is also a good opportunity to verify your 24/7 contact information on the Health Commerce System (HCS) and ensure it is up to date.
