Resident Rights Deficiencies

Potential for More Than Minimal Harm

Note: The heat index, also known as apparent temperature, is determined by combining the actual air temperature and relative humidity to reflect how hot the conditions feel to the human body. It essentially represents the 'feels like' temperature.

This is because high humidity reduces the body's ability to cool itself through sweat evaporation, making the air feel hotter than the actual temperature.
