Emergency Response and Information
Situation Update
Thursday, December 27,
2012 8:58 AM EST
Beckley VA Medical Center and Greenbrier County Community Based Outpatient Clinic are working under normal operational conditions. For more information call 304-255-2121.
Veterans and Employees are encouraged to monitor the weather and be prepared for the winter season. Although staying indoors as much as possible can help reduce the risk of car crashes and falls on the ice, you may also face indoor hazards. Many homes will be too cold—either due to a power failure or because the heating system isn't adequate for the weather. When people must use space heaters and fireplaces to stay warm, the risk of household fires increases, as well as the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning.
Exposure to cold temperatures, whether indoors or outside, can cause other serious or life-threatening health problems. Infants and the elderly are particularly at risk, but anyone can be affected. To keep yourself and your family safe, you should know how to prevent cold-related health problems and what to do if a cold-weather health emergency arises.
