This project aims to improve living conditions and resilience to indoor heat in healthcare facilities. Through assessments and interventions, the findings will be used to develop practical, low-cost knowledge translation solutions. These solutions aim to empower healthcare workers, facility leaders, and communities to take informed action on heat-health challenges, protect vulnerable populations, and ensure continuous, safe, and effective delivery of care during extreme indoor heat events.
