SUMMARY:Allergic and Non-allergic Respiratory Disease in Farmers
DESCRIPTION:The goal of the webinar is to inform health care providers of farmers and farming exposed workers on the allergic and non-allergic respiratory diseases commonplace to this type of environment. The webinar will cover a general overview of allergic and non-allergic respiratory diseases including asthma\, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease\, hypersensitivity pneumonia\, and organic dust toxic syndrome.  Viewers of this webinar will be able to recognize the similarities and differences in the presentation\, diagnostic approach\, and treatment modalities available. \nBy the end of this webinar\, the audience will be able to: \n\nRecognize and determine allergic respiratory disease and discuss relevance with in the farming community.\nDiscuss the diagnostic evaluation of occupational induced asthma.\nRecognize the common causes of non-allergic respiratory disease among farmers including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease\, organic dust toxic syndrome\, and hypersensitivity pneumonitis.\nBe able to discuss treatment options for respiratory disease in farmers.\n\n This training has expired.

SUMMARY:Respiratory Protection Program Adapted to Grain Handling Operations
DESCRIPTION:The OSHA respiratory standard requires a written respiratory protection program for situations in which permissible exposure levels (PELs) of airborne contaminants could be exceeded or when the employer requires use of respirators by workers. This training will assist agriculture-based employers who require respirator use to comply with the OSHA respiratory protection program standard. Training includes written worksite specific procedures\, program evaluation\, selection of an appropriate respirator approved by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)\, training\, fit testing\, inspection\, cleaning\, maintenance\, and storage\, medical evaluation\, work area surveillance and air quality standards. \nAt the end of the presentation\, participants will be able to: \n\nRecognize the diverse respiratory hazards unique to agricultural and the justification for a comprehensive respiratory program.\nIdentify the OSHA respirator standards that apply to an agricultural setting.\nUnderstand key components of an effective respiratory protection program.\nLearn how to access resources\, templates\, medical evaluations\, and further trainings to effectively implement a respiratory program.\n\n  \n\n\nRegistration Instructions: \n\n\n\nIf you don’t already have a profile with AgriSafe\, please set up a free account. This free account allows you access to our many training opportunities. Once you have signed up\, you can watch this webinar on-demand. \n\n \n  \n Watch this webinar on-demand.
