Earlier this month, students at Hastings High School got hands-on training for responding to serious injuries during a “Stop the Bleed” training course. Michael Doering, system director of trauma services for M Health Fairview, partnered with Dakota County to help lead the training. “If we can help teach just a few people to recognize and stop bleeding, then we can help save lives,” he said. Students learn practical skills, such as packing wounds and applying tourniquets, applicable to everyday scenarios like kitchen accidents or sports injuries, to more dangerous crises. “I feel safer,” said one student who took the training. “I feel like if I’m out and about and somebody needs help, I can actually save them.” Watch the full story: https://mhfv.care/3Wo0wLt

Following up on our post regarding Constable Continuing Education training. Below are the questions we were ask and the responses. 1. In the Constable Continuing Education class it shows it satisfies 8 hrs of ALERRT and the State and Federal Law Update, are Constables required to complete the Finding Wellness (#4202) and the Trauma Informed Approach to Sexual Assault Investigations (#4070)? TCOLE Response: Our commissioners expect constables to take the Finding Wellness and Trauma Informed Approach courses. They are both free on MyTCOLE. 2. If the Constable Continuing Education training gives credit for 8 hours of ALERRT, does this means Constables only need 8 additional hours of ALERRT, or do they still need to do 16 hours? TCOLE Response: It shows 8 hours credit, so they just need 8 more hours. #texaspolicetrainers

It is time. Only for the brave ready to confront the shadows. This isn't a Hallmark movie. This will not be your typical training event - this is not an over professionalised 'teacher' package, I won't be delivering training 'to' you - we will be diving into the issues together and looking at the facts, not the fiction. This is about understanding who Mwud are behind the curtain and their specific needs. We will look at some of the difficult questions and explore the different responses & approaches we can take to provide answers. This is not about debating whether good mothers can use drugs, this is not about making you change your views on whether parental drug use is acceptable- this is about shining a light on the shadows, exposing the real and working together to map out how to do the best we can in the space we have. We cannot change policy in 1-2 days but we can change our approach and implement effective practice. We can develop strategies for meaningful bridge building and look past the emotive 'should they be doing this & are we encouraging it' to 'it is happening & reducing harm is the priority'. 'Anna type' training delivered in a unique style, ensuring you leave with a purposeful, co-created plan—not empty promises. It only takes one—be that one. I look forward to seeing you - and hope the coffee is good 😉 https://lnkd.in/eNgsnHKm

There's a better way to talk about SI💜 In a time when therapists continue to feel underprepared and unsupported to address SI, we need modern education and resources, as well as an approach that doesn't include fear mongering, now more than ever. At 12 hours, this course is twice the length of most mandatory continuing education - we think that shows just how necessary a change really is... This comprehensive course presents information, practices, and resources compassionately, holding space for clinicians to work through their own fear and anxiety regarding this topic. Offered in both text and audio formats, with suggested breaks and check-ins throughout, we hope to be inclusive of all learning styles. Included is a 50-page workbook of self-reflection questions, journal prompts, client handouts and homework, infosheets, and notes pages to support your learning. ✔ CEU-Approved for LCSW, LPCC, LMFT https://lnkd.in/gieeSsFF [ If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, you can call or text 988 to reach the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline for free and confidential support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You can also reach the Lifeline via live chat at 988lifeline.org. In life-threatening situations, call 911 or go to the nearest hospital emergency room. ]

Our Statewide Survey of Older Adults shows that most residents want to stay in their communities, but do not see appropriate options for them to age-in-place. NJ needs to start focusing on building age-appropriate housing, allowing people to downsize and not just build mcmansions. I am looking forward to TFAH's Age Friendly Public Health System meeting on aging and housing tomorrow at 3: Join Trust for America's Health on July 18th for a monthly Age-Friendly Public Health Systems Training on the relationship between aging and housing. A recent report by Harvard University’s Joint Center for Housing Studies – Housing America’s Older Adults 2023 – examined the dual burden of housing and care faced by older people. This month’s training, to be held this Thursday, July 18 at 3 pm ET, will provide insights from the report as well as recent research on the factors that impact the ability of older adults to live in the community with independence and safety. This presentation will also help practitioners use a housing lens when addressing the social determinants of older adult health. Register here. https://lnkd.in/eRhgaBy4
Welcome! You are invited to join a meeting: AFPHS Monthly Training. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the meeting.

Fresh off a presentation to the American Medical Association's CaregiverERG on "How to Raise Culturally Inclusive Kids" and the hyper-specific questions had me 𝘀𝘄𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴...in a good way! Here are my takeaways and learning moments: 1. I have given this presentation dozens of times and I know by now that it leads to nuanced questions. I take this as a positive sign that people are leaning in and want to do their best. 2. I demonstrated through my sometimes too-long answers that there is not one right way to do this, but the goal is to lean in with curiosity and empathy and guide our children as best we can. 3. There is always more to learn and no one knows everything. The only way to grow is to keep learning. #itsthelittlethings #authenticleadership #leadyourselffirst

Education Day highlights community educational programs and the importance of ongoing education for EMS professionals. Texas EMS School not only focuses on the education and success of future EMS personnel but also on educating the community. Trauma is the leading cause of death for Americans under age 45. Life-threatening injuries require immediate action to prevent death. As part of the commitment to our community, Texas EMS School has tips that may save a life. 1. Call 911: Do not assume that someone else has called. 911 operators are trained and will help and coach you through the life-threatening situation until first responders arrive. 2. Be Safe: Assess the situation, pause, and remain as calm as possible, using all available senses. It is up to you to decide whether to grab the injured and get to safety or also get yourself to safety. 3. Stop the bleeding: It is best to apply steady, firm pressure on the source of bleeding until first responders arrive. Consider using a tourniquet if the bleeding does not stop with manual pressure. 4. Position the injured: Lay the injured on their side, if possible, with legs slightly bent. Your bottom hand should be reaching outward with the head of the injured resting near your hand. Lastly, raise the chin forward with their mouth pointed downward. 5. Provide comfort: In an effort to comfort the patient, share names and ask basic questions. Keep them warm and offer a hand to hold. Kindness will not only comfort the patient but also provide reassurance. It is tips such as these that can mean the difference between life and death. Follow Texas EMS on social platforms for more educational tips throughout the year. #axoneducation #texasemsschool #emsweek
