SUMMARY:Invest in Your Health: Cultivating a Healthy Mind
DESCRIPTION:Summary: Stigma exists across all age groups for those struggling with mental health. Navigation of the teen years in everyday situations can create angst and uncomfortable feelings that are difficult to express. Adding mental illness and mental crisis to a teen or young adult’s typical growth and development makes struggling with emotions\, relationships\, academic success\, and safety more challenging. According to the CDC\, rates of depression and anxiety climb significantly during the ages of 12-17. Suicide is the second leading cause of death of youths in the United States. This module opens an introductory discussion of mental health among teens and young adults with guidance from an adult educator. Focus is placed on decreasing stigma\, improving mental health literacy\, and positive coping skills for teens and young adults. The module showcases a high school agricultural student’s understanding of the agricultural mental health crisis\, helping to frame mental health distress to academic and future career success. \nObjectives: After the module\, teens and young adults will be able to…. \n\nUnderstand the relationship of mental health to physical health and academic or career success\nRecognize basic signs or symptoms that present when young adults experience mental stress\nIdentify healthy and unhealthy coping behaviors when faced with mental distress\nCommunicate their concerns when suspecting they or someone they know is experiencing a mental health crisis\n\nIntended Audience: This Train the Trainer course is designed for teachers\, Extension staff\, 4H and FFA leaders and others who work with young adults. \n  \n\n\nRegistration Instructions: \n\n\n\nIf you don’t already have a profile with AgriSafe\, please set up a free account.

SUMMARY:NFSHW 2021: Pediatric Farm-Related Injuries: Safeguarding Children Who Visit or Live on Farms
DESCRIPTION:Summary: Injuries are the most common cause of death for children and adolescents\, and farms and ranches present many unique hazards to youth. During this presentation\, we will discuss many of these including augers\, grain bins\, gravity boxes\, tractors\, power take-offs (PTOs)\, manure pits\, chemical exposures\, animals\, and gasoline-powered pressure sprayers. One of the most common causes of serious injuries and deaths to youth on farms and ranches are the use of off-road vehicles (ORVs) like all-terrain vehicles (ATVs)\, utility task vehicles (UTVs)\, and recreational off-highway vehicles (ROVs). The safety concerns and prevention strategies related to ORVs will be a featured segment of the presentation. A general overview of how the growth and development of youth affect the risk of injury\, and the role healthcare providers can assume to impact injury prevention will be discussed. \nIntended Audience: Anyone working with youth in agriculture\, and rural healthcare providers \nObjectives: At the end of this webinar\, participants will be able to…\n1. Name at least four specific safety hazards on farms and express how one might counsel families to prevent injuries from those hazards.\n2. Describe what a PTO is and how one avoids injuries associated with them.\n3. State at least two ways to prevent injury when operating tractors.\n4. Convey how one would attempt the rescue of someone caught in a grain bin\, or manage an extremity caught in an auger.\n5. Explain at least three reasons why off-road vehicles like all-terrain vehicles and utility task vehicles are not designed to be used on roads. \nPresenter: Charles Jennissen\, MD\, Clinical Professor\, University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine \n Watch the Recording Here  \n

SUMMARY:Webinar:  Implementing Community-Led Interventions with Gulf Coast Seafood Workers
DESCRIPTION:Summary: The University of Texas Medical Branch conducted semi-structured interviews and observations with Gulf Coast shrimp fishermen to understand their healthcare experiences and needs as well as policies that are impacting their health. Community-based participatory research (CBPR)\, a relational model that values the participants as equal partners in research\, dissemination\, and implementation\, guided the interviews. To address the lack of healthcare options for (im)migrants\, and at the request of the seafood workers participating in the ongoing CBPR study\, we successfully implemented and treated workers through a free mobile clinic. Many of these individuals had not been seen by a healthcare provider in years\, highlighting the importance of community trust and rapport building when addressing interconnected health and safety issues. CBPR\, when applied to high-risk occupational settings with underreached populations (e.g.\, (im)migrant workers)\, can improve health and prevent injury. \nObjectives: At the end of this presentation\, participants will be able to…\n– Describe the healthcare experiences and needs of (im)migrant seafood workers\n– Describe the principles of CBPR and how it can be applied to total worker health research\n– Discuss the difficulties of CBPR and ways to ensure the community is equitably engaged in all aspects of research-to-practice partnerships \nIntended Audience: Researchers\, Practitioners\, or Policymakers \n Watch Now  \n\nContinuing Education:\nThe Midwest Center for Occupational Health and Safety offers 0.10 CEU or 1.0 contact hour/s of participation. This course is eligible for 1.0 CPH Recertification Credits and is sponsored by the University of Minnesota School of Public Health\, an approved provider of CPH Recertification Credits by the National Board of Public Health Examiners. The following groups of professionals have been able to use these CEUs in the past; Industrial Hygiene (CIH)\, Certified Public Health Professional(CPH)\, Certified Safety Professional (CSP)\, Nursing (RN\, LPN)\, Social Work (LSW)\, Occupational Therapy (OT)\, Physical Therapy (PT)\, Audiology (ABA)\, and others.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Cultivating a Healthy Mind - Mental Wellness for Youth Train the Trainer
DESCRIPTION:Summary: Stigma exists across all age groups for those struggling with mental health. Navigation of the teen years in everyday situations can create angst and uncomfortable feelings that are difficult to express. Adding mental illness and mental crisis to a teen or young adult’s typical growth and development makes struggling with emotions\, relationships\, academic success\, and safety more challenging. According to the CDC\, rates of depression and anxiety climb significantly during the ages of 12-17. Suicide is the second leading cause of death of youths in the United States. This module opens an introductory discussion of mental health among teens and young adults with guidance from an adult educator. Focus is placed on decreasing stigma\, improving mental health literacy\, and positive coping skills for teens and young adults. The module showcases a high school agricultural student’s understanding of the agricultural mental health crisis\, helping to frame mental health distress to academic and future career success. \nObjectives: After the module\, teens and young adults will be able to…. \n\nUnderstand the relationship of mental health to physical health and academic or career success\nRecognize basic signs or symptoms that present when young adults experience mental stress\nIdentify healthy and unhealthy coping behaviors when faced with mental distress\nCommunicate their concerns when suspecting they or someone they know is experiencing a mental health crisis\n\nIntended Audience: This Train the Trainer course is designed for teachers\, Extension staff\, 4H and FFA leaders and others who work with young adults. \n Watch the Recording Here

SUMMARY:Webinar: Invest in Your Health- Stay Cool! Prevention of Heat Related Illness in Agriculture Train the Trainer
DESCRIPTION:[Illustration: Word cloud\, with the most prominent phrase being “heat wave\,” along with dozens of varying sizes of words and phrases\, including\, “infant heat stroke\,” “elderly\,” and “heat index.”] \nSummary: Agriculture is ranked as one of the most dangerous occupations and involves workers and family members of all ages. Heat-related illness occurs when the body’s temperature gets too high and the body’s ability to dissipate heat through sweating and other methods is overcome. Several conditions can result from this such as heat cramps\, heat exhaustion\, or heatstroke. In 2014\, 253\,000 young workers between the ages of 16-23 were employed in agriculture. In production agriculture\, it is common to work in a hot environment and/ or in direct sunlight. Every year\, thousands of workers become sick from exposure to heat\, and some even die. Heat-related illnesses\, while potentially deadly\, are easily preventable. \nIntended Audience: This Train the Trainer course is designed for teachers\, Extension staff\, 4H and FFA leaders and others who work with young adults. \nObjectives: At the end of this webinar participants will be able to… \n\nIdentify the various types of heat-related illnesses\nIdentify warning signs of life-threatening exposures\nLearn immediate care procedures\nAccess educational resources\n\n Watch the Recording Here
