It's Friday, which means a visit from Mark Husen with Bellin Sports Medicine. By special request, Mark brings in an AED unit to give Jim, John, and our listeners a quick tutorial on how to use them. According to Mark, the big thing about AEDs is to turn the unit on. The unit will walk the user through the steps needed to check heart rate and determine if and when a shock might be required. A very important bit of information! Then the guys are joined by Bryce Retzer from Ledgerock Distillery, one of the participants in the Maino & The Mayor Top Craft Pick promotion that's currently underway. From vodkas to bourbons and everything in between, the grains used are from their farm on the ledge just south of Fond du Lac. Using the limestone-filtered water, also found on the farm, they truly create farm-to-table products. Maino and the Mayor is a part of the Civic Media radio network and airs Monday through Friday from 6-9 am on WGBW in Green Bay and on WISS in Appleton/Oshkosh.

Remembering all the different energy setting needed for synchronized cardioversion and defibrillation used to be confusing for a lot of people. Defibrillators can be broken down into three basic categories: 1. Automated External Defibrillator (AED);2. Biphasic defibrillators; and3. Monophasic defibrillators. Use of an AED to rapidly deliver a shock. Advantages & use of Biphasic defibrillators. For monophasic defibrillators, use 360J to defibrillate V-Fib or pulseless V-Tach.AEDs must not be used on patients with a pulse.Cardioversion of patients in unstable SVT or V-Tach with a pulse using biphasic vs monophasic monitor/defibrillators.Team safety when performing synchronized cardioversion.

Her timing is perfect for National Preparedness Month in September. We've got so much to discuss in the way of natural catastrophes and other risks. [3:46] We will also talk about National Recovery Month, and how prescription opioids can impact employees and employers and why it is such an important business risk. That dovetails into last week's episode with the NCCI. [4:02] We'll talk about the NSC's Safety Congress and Expo on September 13th through the 19th in Florida and we'll also talk a bit about Lorraine's background in the U.S. Air Force, her decades at Lockheed Martin, and how those shaped her risk perspective. [4:24] Lorraine Martin, welcome back to RIMScast! [4:45] Lorraine started her career in the U.S. Air Force. Justin thanks her for her service. After the Air Force, Lorraine spent nearly 30 years at Lockheed Martin. [5:29] The Air Force and all the armed services ask their people to do high-risk things to protect our nation and support our allies around the world. As a member of the armed services, you understand how important safety is to those you protect, and the risks that go with that. [5:55] Lorraine started in the Air Force in the early '80s. Being a five-foot female in the Air Force she had combat boots and survival suits that didn't always fit. She saw the need to keep everyone safe. That means being open and expansive to make sure to cover everybody. [6:44] At Lockheed Martin, Lorraine ran some of the aircraft manufacturing programs. There was potential for serious injury and fatality (SIF), with energy, heights, and all kinds of things that need to be done safely. [7:08] The products being built had to go do important things around the world, so they had to meet safety standards for operation and bring everybody home. Lorraine needed to understand safety in manufacturing and in the mission. [7:30] Justin and Lorraine met after Lorraine joined the NSC as President and CEO in 2019. Less than a year later, COVID-19 hit the U.S. Lorraine has been at the NSC for five years. Time sometimes flew by and In some cases, it felt like the world stood still for everybody. [8:13] On RIMScast in 2020, Justin and Lorraine talked about technology and the importance of reaching people, through podcasts, Zoom, or Teams. Lorraine is responsible for providing training so people can be safe. She had to learn how to do that when she couldn't be with them. [8:40] The NSC had to become good at virtual training and helping customers and stakeholders understand what remote and virtual learning looks like. The world has come so far in understanding what people can do virtually. It's not everything! Human interaction is still critical. [9:01]  Lorraine says we learned so much, whether for drivers' fleet training or for folks doing CPR. The NSC was able to reach more people, which is great when you're talking about safety. In many cases, the NSC reached them in a more cost-effective manner for all involved. [9:27]  The NSC focused on what was happening to humans as they were being buffeted during this time, from 2020. On RIMScast, Lorraine and Justin had talked about mental health. The NSC pioneered some research that looked at how psychological safety impacts physical safety. [9:55] Lorraine believes that since 2020, we've come so far in understanding that physical safety can be impacted by many different aspects of your life like distraction, fatigue, or substance abuse, that can cause you not to be on your game. [10:22] The NSC honed in on the issue of a person not being on their game as being impaired, and they shouldn't do something that would put themselves or somebody else at risk. [10:38] The NSC leaned into trainings around being able to identify impairment and giving people the skills to take action so they can take somebody out of harm's way. It's easy to say and hard to do but so critical. [10:55] The NSC and RIMS both used the pandemic as an opportunity to dial up virtual offerings and dial back some live events. Many of the right live events have come back. There is some training that is important to be in person. [11:18] In-person collaboration and interaction support mental health. Isolation as a result of the pandemic was a burden for many folks. [11:47] The NSC received positive feedback on their SAFER initiative, ensuring people were safe in returning to work. A task force of stakeholders from government, non-profits, public health medical professionals, and Fortune 500 companies advised NSC and NSC advised workplaces. [12:30] The SAFER guidelines included ventilation, vaccination, and all of the things a business would need. It was a one-stop shop for policy statements, legal statements, and other best practices for workplaces to use to safely accommodate workers at work. [13:10] The SAFER initiative is still going on. It's funded now by the CDC. NSC is now looking at long-term COVID, mental health and well-being, the overall long-term effects of a pandemic, and how workplaces prepare for whatever's coming in the future. [14:06] Lorraine just listened to a piece on NPR about COVID-19. We're still learning. We've found a way so that most folks do not perish from it, but we don't know everything about it and probably won't for some time. [14:28] In Long COVID there's some inflammation or reaction that's still happening long after the initial symptoms. Understanding it and what we can do either to prevent or treat it is still in front of us. [14:46] Organizations that let NSC white-label guideline documents for distribution were mostly NSC member organizations. NSC has roughly 14,000 member organizations and companies. They get policies and information from NSC and they also give back so others could learn. [16:01] All of the armed services are members of the National Safety Council. Some of them use NSC training for various things. Lorraine's past employer, Lockheed Martin, has been a member for a long time. [16:13] NSC has groups called networks, made up of the larger companies, that look at big trends coming, to help the government prepare and give back to small and mid-sized companies. Lockheed Martin is in many of the networks as are other Fortune 100 companies. [16:44] It's RIMS plug time! Webinars! On September 5th, Merrill Herzog debuts on RIMS Webinars with the Role of Insurance in Building Resilience Against an Active Assailant Attack. [16:57] On September 12th, HUB International returns to deliver the third part of their Ready for Tomorrow series, Pivot and Swerve: Staying Agile During Shifting Market Dynamics. [17:12] On September 19th, Origami Risk returns to deliver Leveraging Integrated Risk Management For Strategic Advantage. On September 26th, Archer returns to discuss The Future of RMIS: Beyond Traditional Approaches. [17:28] On October 3rd, Diligent will host Mastering ERM: Leveraging Internal and External Risk Factors for Strategic Advantage. More RIMS Webinars will be announced soon and added to RIMS.org/Webinars. Register here. Registration is always complimentary for RIMS members. [17:50] The RIMS ERM Conference 2024 will be held November 18th and 19th in Boston, Massachusetts. The agenda is live. [18:01] The submission process is open for the RIMS ERM Global Award of Distinction. A link to the application is in this episode's show notes. The deadline for submissions is August 30th. [18:12] So review your organization's ERM program. If you feel it was successful and you have the numbers and the data to back it up, compile that information and get ready to submit your ERM program for the ERM Award of Distinction. [18:26] The Spencer Educational Foundation's goal is to help build a talent pipeline of risk management and insurance professionals. That is achieved, in part, by a collaboration with risk management and insurance educators across the U.S. and Canada. [18:41] Whether you want to apply for a grant, participate in the Risk Manager on Campus program, or just learn more about Spencer, visit SpencerEd.org. [18:52] On September 12th, 2024, we look forward to seeing you at the Spencer Funding Their Future Gala at The Cipriani 42nd Street in New York City. Our recent guest from Episode 293, Lilian Vanvieldt-Gray, will be our honoree. [19:08] Lilian is the Executive Vice President and Chief Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Officer at Alliant Insurance Services and she will be honored for her valuable contributions to supporting the future of risk management and insurance. [19:25] That was a great episode, so after you finish this one, please go back and listen to Episode 293. [19:31] Let's Conclude Our Interview! September is National Preparedness Month. NOAA has said that atmospheric and oceanic conditions continue to support an above-normal 2024 Atlantic hurricane season with a 90% probability of this result. [20:57] Organizations must do a lot to prepare for extreme weather. Extreme weather is getting more common. It affects communities but also impacts people at work. Businesses must be prepared for their businesses to continue but also to protect their people from extreme weather. [21:42] Businesses can act to protect their people from wildfires, tornadoes, storms, and heat. Heat is the deadliest weather event. Our world is getting hotter, the data shows. Many people work outside in extreme, dangerous heat. [22:18] OSHA recently issued a proposed ruling, informed by input from the NSC and its members, to keep indoor and outdoor workers safe from heat injury and illness. Employers need to incorporate these weather events into their safety programs. [22:59] You need a written heat injury and illness policy and prevention program. Document your emergency action plans. Practice them. Hold heat awareness training. Heat exhaustion and heat stress prevention is about being preventative. Know the signs, hydrate, and take shaded breaks. [23:30] Education is hugely important to prevent heat illness. NSC has resources for employers to build their safety programs. Go to NSC.org and reach out. If you haven't put in some of these extreme weather precautions to protect your employees, Lorraine urges you to do so. [24:13] September is also National Alcohol and Drug Addiction Recovery Month. Overdoses are the leading cause of unintentional death in the U.S. Every day we lose 200 people to an unintentional death from an overdose, compared to 100 roadway deaths. [25:16] Deaths on the job from overdoses have increased by over 600% since 2011. Overdoses make up nearly 10% of all deaths at work in the U.S. In some U.S. states the number is higher. In California, the rate of overdose deaths at work over the last 12 months was closer to 20%. [26:09] Construction and agriculture are hard hit by overdose deaths. Sometimes it's the type of work being done. Last year the FDA made naloxone, an opioid reversal medication, available over the counter. [26:39] The NSC advocates that naloxone be stocked in every workplace and all employees be trained in this life-saving reversal practice, just like with CPR or AEDs. You want to be able to administer this life-saving drug on the spot to bring someone back to life if you can. [27:03] For those workplaces where they've had a fatality due to an unintended overdose, it's devastating for the workforce, the community, and families. [27:11] We have this incredibly impactful drug and in most cases, the person has survived, and you can't hurt someone with it, whether or not they're overdosing or whether or not you've misdiagnosed them, you can't hurt them. [27:28] The NSC provides training on its website on how to do naloxone. It's virtual, and it is in a workplace language. NSC also has drug policies, legal briefs, and good samaritan laws, state by state. If somebody says they need some guide, NSC tries to find it to put it on the website. [28:26] Sixty-six percent of people with a substance use disorder of any kind have a job. The workplace is a great place to be intervening for them and having their back. [28:45] A study from the Massachusetts Dept. of Public Health found that Massachusetts working-age residents were 35% more likely to die of an opioid-related overdose if they'd previously been injured at work. [29:06] If you get hurt at work and then get prescribed an opioid, you can sometimes be on that path to a substance use issue just because you're trying to make sure that you can stay healthy and be at work. This is an important issue for our workplaces and employers to be part of. [29:27] Employees in recovery are very good employees who miss fewer days of work than the average employee and they save employers money, once they are back at work. Lorraine encourages employers to ensure employee safety, help in recovery, and get them back to work. [30:11] Labor Day is coming up. NSC offers a message for the Labor Day weekend on how many people may lose their lives if people don't drive well this Labor Day weekend: 457 across the nation. Every single death on a roadway is preventable. When you drive, do so safely. [31:50] Justin says to look for the link to the NSC 2024 Labor Day message in this episode's show notes. [31:58] The NSC Safety Congress & Expo will be held in Orlando, September 13th through the 19th. Lorraine will talk to the stakeholders and be on the stage. It's the big NSC show of the year. There is also a fundraiser around it, the NSC board meeting, and professional development.  [32:29] The main show is on the Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, the 16th through the 18th. Speakers include Doug Parker, the head of OSHA, technical sessions, and a huge Expo floor. [32:43] There will be a cool speaker who is a blind adventurer who climbs mountains, and who will share resilience and safety-related messages. Go the the NSC Safety Congress link in this episode's notes. Lorraine looks forward to seeing everyone this year, there in Orlando. [33:12] Everyone is definitely united at the NSC Safety Congress & Expo! [33:14] Lorraine, it has been such a pleasure to see you again and to speak with you to get your perspective and insight. Thank you for rejoining us! Hopefully, the next time we have you on RIMScast, it won't be four years between visits. [33:37] Special thanks again to NSC CEO, Lorraine Martin for reasoning us here on RIMScast. We love the NSC here at RIMS; they do great work. The NSC Safety Congress & Expo will be held from September 13th through 19th in Orlando, Florida. A link is in this episode's show notes.

OxygenCare, a leading provider of life-saving medical equipment and solutions, announces a new partnership with Defibtech, a manufacturer of life-saving resuscitation devices, to improve the availability of rescue-ready defibrillators in Ireland which could save lives. Defibtech, a long-standing American manufacturer in medical technology, is dedicated to crafting dependable, affordable, and user-friendly products, empowering communities globally to respond to sudden cardiac arrest. Joseph Mullally, Senior Vice President of Commercial Operations, Defibtech, said: "Partnering with an industry leader like OxygenCare was a natural fit for Defibtech. We have a shared mission to provide emergency medical technology and spread awareness which can save lives. We recognise that the true impact of our work lies not only in the accessibility of our products but also through knowledge and skills". Cardiovascular disease remains a leading cause of death in Ireland, with at least 9,000 deaths and 25,000 hospital admissions each year according to the HSE. The availability of functional defibrillators is crucial, and inadequate maintenance has rendered many devices non-functional, exacerbating the issue. Conrad Wynne, Senior Product Specialist, Resuscitation, OxygenCare, said: "This partnership with Defibtech not only enhances our critical care offering but enables us to help ensure that AEDs across Ireland are both available and functional when people need them. Emergency situations arise all the time and every second counts in these situations, so having operational, life-saving technology is crucial. As a leading provider of emergency and resuscitation equipment, OxygenCare has extensive experience and a long-standing reputation in the Irish healthcare industry. The addition of Defibtech's Lifeline AED (automated external defibrillators) greatly enhances its existing portfolio. Joseph Mullally added: "By combining our defibrillator products with OxygenCare's support and service, we're equipping organisations and communities across Ireland with the tools, knowledge and confidence to act decisively in the face of cardiac emergencies. Together, we are on a journey to reach this goal, saving lives and safeguarding communities, one heartbeat at a time." See more stories here.

Quanta Service's (AED) program has saved 42 lives (including several civilians) so far. Quanta's Automated External Defibrillator (AED) program aims to increase the rate of survival for people suffering sudden cardiac arrests wherever their crews are. Jack Mauel works for Stryker, the leading manufacture of (AED's) Automated External Defibrillators in North America and Matt Compher is the VP of Safety, Health, and Environmental for Quanta Services. A well-functioning AED program provides equipment and training to enhance life safety response measures. AEDs make it possible for trained and untrained responders to administer defibrillation prior to the arrival of Emergency Medical Services (EMS). Your goal should be to deploy an AED on every job site across North America and after listening to this podcast you'll see that it is a very attainable goal.   ✌️SUPPORT THE PODCAST HERE ✌️ Hit up our website here: https://www.powerlinepodcast.com/  

Remembering all the different energy setting needed for synchronized cardioversion and defibrillation used to be confusing for a lot of people. Defibrillators can be broken down into three basic categories:1. Automated External Defibrillator (AED);2. Biphasic defibrillators; and3. Monophasic defibrillators.Use of an AED to rapidly deliver a shock.Advantages & use of Biphasic defibrillators. For monophasic defibrillators, use 360J to defibrillate V-Fib or pulseless V-Tach.AEDs must not be used on patients with a pulse. Cardioversion of patients in unstable SVT or V-Tach with a pulse using biphasic vs monophasic monitor/defibrillators. Team safety when performing synchronized cardioversion. Energy needed to cardiovert unstable patients with a narrow vs wide complex tachycardia.

Fire Chief Rebecca Strobl Turned Her Knowledge of Life-Saving Skills into a Business to Train Others How To React In Emergencies.   I don't know about you, but I could use a refresher course in how to do CPR, and what exactly to do first when someone's bleeding badly, even what to do if someone is in shock.   In a recent episode of the Debbie Nigro Show, I decided to shine a spotlight on Rebecca and her company New Day Education and Motivation located in Waleska, Georgia because I thought the work she was doing was critical and felt every community should have a Rebecca.    Rebecca Strobl has inspired me to go get a hands on refresher course in how to react in emergencies. Apparently I don't own the market on being a nervous reactor when something insane happens as most people without the right skills do panic.   By leveraging her expertise and passion, Rebecca Strobl is making a difference one life-saving skill at a time, inspiring others to join her in creating safer and more prepared communities.      With a background as a retired volunteer fire chief and extensive experience in the security industry, Rebecca saw a need for widespread training in emergency response.    Starting as a lieutenant in the fire department, she saw a gap in knowledge and took it upon herself to provide comprehensive training not only to firefighters but also to individuals in various industries.   One of the key takeaways from my conversation with Rebecca was the importance of hands-on training in emergency situations vs watching a video.   Rebecca is adamant that of in-person courses matter, because participants can practice CPR, use AEDs, apply tourniquets, and learn to manage shock effectively.   She highlighted the difference between simply knowing what to do and having the confidence to act decisively in critical moments especially the average person who does not have a background in using these skills on a regular basis.   Rebecca stressed the significance of being prepared for emergencies by having essential supplies on hand. She recommends items like CPR masks, tourniquets, dressings, bandages, and emergency blankets for addressing the three primary killers: lack of breathing, severe bleeding, and shock.   Rebecca's passion is to empower individuals to with the knowledge to be able to save lives. Her dedication to teaching life-saving skills extends beyond traditional training methods, as she utilizes engaging and interactive techniques to ensure participants feel confident and prepared to respond in emergencies.   She is doing remarkable work and I encourage listeners to explore opportunities for training with New Day Education and Motivation if you are in the Georgia area.  I encourage other communities to follow her lead in offering training for these lifesaving skills.   Rebecca's mission to equip communities with life-saving skills is a true testament to the impact that individuals can have when they are empowered with knowledge and training.   To learn more about Rebecca Strobl and New Day Education and Motivation, visit their website at newdayeducationandmotivation.com.   You'll get a good life saving education in this podcast of our live conversation on The Debbie Nigro Show.

The conviction stemmed from an incident where Long forcibly carried a woman into an apartment during a domestic dispute witnessed by an off-duty Cobb County police officer. Long and the woman were in a dating relationship with a history of domestic violence. He chased her into the parking lot, wrestled her to the ground, carried her back into the apartment, and pinned her down. The woman eventually escaped using pepper spray. The jury found Long guilty based on evidence including eyewitness testimony and video footage. Long is also prohibited from contacting the victim and is banished from Cherokee County after serving his prison term.

Defense argued Willis financially benefited from the relationship, impacting her impartiality. They also criticized her remarks at a Black church, accusing her of playing the "race card." Willis denied any wrongdoing, stating the relationship began after Wade's hiring. The defense questioned the validity of cellphone records showing extensive communication between Willis and Wade. The judge is expected to issue a ruling within two weeks. STORY 3: Woodstock Fire Department Deploys New Automatic External Defibrillators The Woodstock Fire Department has equipped every vehicle in its fleet with automated external defibrillators (AEDs), enhancing its emergency response capabilities.

This week's episode is a special retrospective: almost two years on, our guests Martha Lopez-Anderson, Melinda Murray-Nyack and Karen Acompora reconvene to reflect on the progress made over the past few years and the remaining obstacles to achieving their goal of eliminating Sudden Cardiac Arrest and Death in our Youth by 2030.Sitting down at the 19th Annual National Parent Heart Watch Heart-to-Heart Conference, our guests first reflect on what they are proud of: screening numbers reaching amazing levels, legislation drafted up, mandated AEDs in New York State… real change is being enacted.Acknowledging the national focus incited by the Damar Hamlin incident just over a year ago and the extent to which it has catalyzed progress, the conversation evolves into a look into the future.Hurdles remain, SCA perception needs to change and measures must be upheld - but as Martha Lopez-Anderson says, 2024 is set to be a year to remember regarding legislation for the prevention of sudden cardiac arrest and death in the young.Follow me on Instagram and Facebook @ericfethkemd and checkout my website at www.EricFethkeMD.com.My brand new book, The Privilege of Caring, is out now on Amazon! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CP6H6QN4Follow me on Instagram and Facebook @ericfethkemd and checkout my website at www.EricFethkeMD.com.

Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin is the epitome of what it means to come back from adversity after he overcame dying on the football field not once but TWICE against the Cincinnati Bengals. Even though Hamlin endured and overcame more adversity than almost any player ever has in the history of the NFL, Hamlin was snubbed for the Comeback Player of the Year Award when the NFL held its annual Honors Awards in Las Vegas ahead of the Super Bowl. This week on the Billieve Podcast, host John Boccacino explains why, after playing even a single snap after dying on the field should have made Hamlin a shoo-in to win the award, and calls out the NFL and its voters for botching the award while lauding Hamlin for his efforts promoting CPR training and improving access to AEDs across the country, Subscribe to the Buffalo Rumblings podcast channel featuring Billieve, Buffalo Rumblings Q&A, Breaking Buffalo Rumblings, Code of Conduct with J.
