TIP #1: Extra Decaf Coffee
Purchase a small, decaffeinated coffee( caffeinated may add to dehydration) during your morning coffee run and give it to someone on the street. Just a small hot drink can warm someone up. Hot chocolate is a good alternative.
TIP #2: Can You Hear Me?
In extremely cold temperatures, it's important not to dismiss an unconscious individual. It takes just a few seconds to check if someone is responsive by asking if he or she can hear you. If you don't get a response, call 911.
TIP #3: Hypothermia Signs
Disorientation, confusion and even "inappropriate" behavior might be signs of the onset of hypothermia. In the dead of winter, if someone appears confused and disoriented, it is important not to misunderstand and dismiss these symptoms. Look for the other signs of hypothermia – extreme shivering, exhaustion, slurred speech and drowsiness – and call for help if they’re present.
