SUMMARY:Farm and Ranch Health Threats After a Flood
DESCRIPTION:Summary: Disaster recovery can be as dangerous as the disaster itself\, especially if no disaster preparedness plan was implemented. This is especially true on farms and ranches where inherent farm hazards such as machinery and equipment\, livestock\, and agriculture chemicals are displaced and co-mingle\, putting all emergency response personnel\, farm workers and family members in danger. Floods can heighten the risk of health threats such as mold\, tetanus bacteria\, contaminated well water\, heat illness and high stress. This presentation will highlight basic precautions to prevent possible diseases and injuries during and after flooding. \nObjectives: At the end of the presentation\, attendees will be able to: \n\nIdentify common human health risks faced during a farm flood.\nDiscuss prevention tips and injury prevention for common human health risks.\nIdentify special considerations for working with livestock during a weather event.\nDiscuss steps involved in developing a disaster preparedness plan and how to safety active a response.\nDiscuss appropriate respiratory personal protective equipment needed during flood recovery.\nIdentify warning signs for behavioral and mental health during and after recovery.\n\nIntended Audience: All individuals living/working on farms and ranches affected by flooding. \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.

SUMMARY:Veteran Farmers: Reducing Noise Exposure & Protecting Your Health
DESCRIPTION:Ag producers experience frequent exposure to high noise and have among the highest prevalence rates of hearing loss among all categories of workers. Additionally\, noise exposure impacts multiple organ systems\, contributing to cardiovascular disease\, hypertension\, obesity\, and other highly prevalent diseases. Although the effects of noise can be mitigated through use of hearing protection and other strategies\, these methods are highly underused in this worker group. In this Webinar designed for agricultural producers who are military veterans\, learners will learn how to identify hazardous noise sources\, strategies to reduce exposure to hazardous noise; and select and use of strategies to protect themselves from the negative effects of noise on their hearing and general health. \nIntended Audience: Military Veterans engaged in agricultural production \nObjectives:\nUpon completion of this training\, participants will be able to: \n\nIdentify harmful noise sources which have the potential to cause hearing damage and other health effects\nIdentify strategies to reduce exposure to hazardous noise\nDescribe appropriate selection and use of personal protective equipment\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:The Impact of Climate-Related Hazards on Mental Health
DESCRIPTION:Summary: Extreme weather and climate events can lead to negative human health outcomes. Although the initial outcomes from these natural hazards are typically obvious\, the long lasting impacts can be more difficult to identify because of the diversity of potential health burdens during the recovery phase. Mental health outcomes are one of the more complex relationships with natural hazards. The goal of this presentation is to build the link between human health and extreme weather and climate events. The discussion will be focused on rural populations. \nIntended Audience: farmers\, ranchers\, health and safety professionals\, ag producers\, agribusiness\, rural mental health professionals \nObjectives: At the end of the webinar\, participants will be able to….. \n– Describe the impact of climate on human health outcomes \n– Identify populations at risk for climate disasters \n– Better understand mechanisms of climate disasters \n– Understand the secondary health impacts from climate disasters \n– Explore the role that these issues play on mental health \n\n\nRegistration Instructions: \n\n\n\nIf you don’t already have a profile with AgriSafe\, please set up a free account.
