https://jo.my/erw5ze Hazard Communication & Chemical Safety: Introduction to Hazard Communication (HazCom) Our topic this month focuses on Hazard Communication, also known as HazCom. This standard is built on a simple principle: every team member has the right to know about the hazardous substances they may come into contact with during their shift. That includes how to handle them safely and what to do if something goes wrong. Hazardous chemicals, ranging from cleaning supplies to fuels, industrial solvents, paints, and everything in between, are present in nearly every facility. These substances can pose serious risks if not identified, stored, and communicated properly. A strong Safety Culture depends on everyone understanding these hazards and following safe practices. Here are a few tips to assist you with staying safe around hazardous chemicals: Know what's in your facility. All chemicals on site should be listed in a Safety Data Sheet (SDS), which must always be available to all team members. If you are unsure about a substance, check the SDS or ask a supervisor for guidance. Read the labels—every time. Before using any chemical, look at the label for hazard warnings, handling instructions, and required personal protective equipment (PPE). Never assume two similar-looking containers hold the same contents. Please follow the signage and posted instructions. Areas with chemical storage or usage will have signs indicating risks—flammable, corrosive, toxic, etc. Respect those warnings. They're there to prevent accidents before they happen. Wear the correct PPE for the job. Depending on the chemical involved, gloves, goggles, respirators, or protective clothing (To name a few) might be required. Using the correct PPE is a key part of protecting yourself from chemical exposure. Be sure to report damaged or missing labels. A label is your first line of defense. If labels are unreadable or missing, please treat the container as unknown and report it immediately. Don't try to guess what's inside. Hazard Communication is more than paperwork, posters, and labels—it's about making sure everyone in the facility understands the risks around them and knows how to act safely. It requires clear communication, consistent training, and a shared responsibility between leadership and staff. Building a safer workplace starts with knowledge. When everyone knows what substances are in use and how to interact with them safely, injuries and exposure incidents decrease. Make it a habit to check labels, read SDSs, and ask questions if something seems wrong. Thank you for being part of another episode of Warehouse Safety Tips. Until we meet next time - have a great week, and STAY SAFE! #Safety #SafetyFIRST #SafetyALWAYS #StaySafe #SafetyCulture #HazardCommunication #ChemicalSafety#PPE #HazCom #SDS #LabelItRight

Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, are a class of synthetic chemicals that have been used since the 1940s to manufacture a wide range of products, from nonstick cookware to firefighting foam, clothes and electronics. PFAS have also been described as “forever chemicals” because they easily disperse and persist in the environment, where they’ve been found in drinking water, soil, air and even the food supply. This week, the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality opened public comment on its proposed rulemaking to regulate six types of PFAS compounds, adding them to the list of more than 800 hazardous substances the agency already regulates. Exposure to certain levels of PFAS may increase the risk for some types of cancer, lead to developmental delays in children, among other adverse health effects, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Last April, the EPA designated two PFAS chemicals as hazardous substances and created the first-ever, national drinking water standard for six PFAS chemicals. Sarah Van Glubt is a cleanup project manager for the Oregon DEQ. She joins us to share what the proposed PFAS regulations would allow for, including testing and cleanup 

“A slack hand causes poverty, but the hand of the diligent makes rich.” — Proverbs 10:4At Faith and Finance, we believe the Bible offers timeless financial wisdom—and sometimes, that wisdom shows up in the form of gentle correction. Let's face it: we all make financial missteps—some intentional, others unintentional. But every mistake is an opportunity to grow in wisdom and stewardship.If you've made some poor decisions with your money, don't let Proverbs 10:4 discourage you. Instead, take heart in Proverbs 19:20:“Listen to advice and accept instruction, that you may gain wisdom in the future.”Let's walk through six money mistakes that can quietly erode your wealth—and how to avoid or correct them with diligence and wisdom.1. Living Paycheck to PaycheckOne of the most common financial traps is spending everything you earn. When there's nothing left over at the end of the month, you're missing an essential part of wise stewardship: saving.The solution? Pay yourself first.Start by setting up an automatic transfer from your checking account to your savings. Even if it's a small amount, consistency is key. Adjust your monthly spending to fit what remains. Yes, it might mean cutting back on things you've grown used to, but almost everyone can trim something from their budget.Aim to save at least 10% of your income. Over time, this will build your financial margin and peace of mind.2. Not Having an Emergency FundWithout savings, every unexpected expense becomes a crisis. And that leads to our next mistake—debt.Once you've begun setting money aside, build your emergency fund. Start with a goal of three months' worth of living expenses and work your way up to six. This financial cushion protects you from having to rely on credit when life throws a curveball.3. Paying Interest on Consumer DebtWithout savings, many people make the costly mistake of using credit cards to cover emergencies.If you carry credit card debt, the biggest mistake you can make is only paying the minimum. Take a close look at your statement—it may show how long it'll take to pay off your balance at the minimum payment. The number might shock you: 15 years or more.Reframe your spending by asking, "What is this really costing me?"A $30 dinner paid with a credit card could cost $60 or more by the time it's paid off. That's not good stewardship.4. Buying a New Car (When You Can't Afford It)There's nothing wrong with buying a new car—if you can pay cash for it. That's the key.Instead of taking on car loans, aim to pay cash for your vehicles, new or used. After you pay off your current car loan, keep making those same “payments”—but to yourself. Put them in a savings account and use that money to purchase your next car.It may take a few vehicles to get there, but eventually, you'll be able to pay cash—and that will be a glorious day.5. Not Opening a Roth IRAEspecially if you're young, not opening a Roth IRA is a missed opportunity for long-term, tax-free growth.Once your emergency fund is in place, consider contributing to a Roth IRA, even if you're already contributing to a 401(k) at work.In 2025, you can contribute up to $7,000 annually to a Roth IRA—or $8,000 if you're age 50 or older. Because you're contributing after-tax dollars, your qualified withdrawals in retirement will be tax-free.That's a powerful way to build lasting wealth.6. Buying Too Much HouseHomeownership can be a blessing, but only if approached wisely. Spending too much on a house can strain your budget, robbing you of financial flexibility and peace.A manageable mortgage, combined with consistent savings, puts you on a path toward financial stability and positions you to honor God with greater freedom and generosity.We all make mistakes with money, but we don't have to stay stuck in them. God's Word is full of grace and wisdom. When we humbly receive correction and take steps toward diligence, we grow not only in financial strength but also in spiritual maturity.So, whether you're just beginning your financial journey or recalibrating after a few missteps, remember that wisdom is always available to those who seek it.“Listen to advice and accept instruction, that you may gain wisdom in the future.” — Proverbs 19:20Let's walk in wisdom and let our money reflect our trust in the One who provides everything.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I have a disabled son, and I would like to leave him some money without attorneys or the government taking it away from him. Is there a way to do that?I'm retired but still working a few days a week, and my Social Security is deducted from my paycheck. What happened to that Social Security? Do I get it later? How does it work?I have a 401(k), and I'd like to know how I can invest according to my values with the options available in it. The only options are big companies that I'd rather not invest in. Do you have any suggestions?We recently sold our house for a good profit, and I'd like to know how we tithe on it. Do we tithe on the full amount we received or only on what goes above the initial price and the interest we paid on it?I left a job and rolled my 401(k) over to my current employer's account. I also have another 401(k). Should I combine them or keep them separate? I'm also getting a car accident settlement. Should I use it to pay off my car loans and credit cards or invest it and continue making payments?I'm 58 and still working, with my house and car paid off. When is it appropriate to redo my will? Is it time to do a trust? Or when is that the wise thing to do?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly MagazineList of Faith-Based Investment FundsWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on Money (Pre-Order)Look At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

“And so you have different kinds of hazards with the drugs that you're using. That means that in the past, when a lot of oncology drugs, antineoplastic drugs used to treat cancer would have been added, you may see that a lot of oncology drugs either weren't added or they're added in a different place on the list than they were in the past. That's due to some of the restructuring of the list we'll probably talk about later,” Jerald L. Ovesen, PhD, pharmacologist at the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about the latest update to the NIOSH list of hazardous drugs.  Music Credit: “Fireflies and Stardust” by Kevin MacLeod  Licensed under Creative Commons by Attribution 3.0   Episode Notes   NCPD contact hours are not available for this episode.  ONS Podcast™ episodes: Episode 330: Stay Up to Date on Safe Handling of Hazardous Drugs  Episode 142: The How-To of Home Infusions Episode 68: Empowering Healthcare Workers to Handle Hazardous Drugs Episode 53: Home Care Nursing for Patients With Cancer ONS Voice articles: Hazardous Drug Surface Contamination Prevails, Despite More Diligent PPE  NIOSH Releases Its 2024 List of Hazardous Drugs  No Place Like It: Home Care for Patients With Cancer  What Is ONS's Stance on Handling Chemotherapy While Pregnant, Breastfeeding, or Trying to Conceive?  What You Wear Matters When It Comes to Safety  ONS book: Safe Handling of Hazardous Drugs (Fourth Edition)  ONS course: Safe Handling Basics  Clinical Journal of Oncology Nursing article: Safe Management of Chemotherapy in the Home  ONS Learning Library: Safe Handling of Hazardous Drugs  ONS Position Statement: Ensuring Healthcare Worker Safety When Handling Hazardous Drugs  National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health article: Managing Hazardous Drug Exposures: Information for Healthcare Settings  NIOSH List of Hazardous Drugs in Healthcare Settings, 2024  To discuss the information in this episode with other oncology nurses, visit the ONS Communities.   To find resources for creating an ONS Podcast Club in your chapter or nursing community, visit the ONS Podcast Library.  To provide feedback or otherwise reach ONS about the podcast, email pubONSVoice@ons.org.  Highlights From This Episode  “So we look for a carcinogenic hazard. So does this molecule, does this chemical, this drug, have the ability to increase the risk of cancer? A lot of the time that will also tie with genotoxic hazards, but not always. There are some drugs on the list that are carcinogenic through other mechanisms. Sometimes carcinogenicity can be related to hormone signals, can lead to increased risk of cancer. There's some nuance there, but is it a carcinogenic hazard? That can get it onto the list. Is it a developmental and reproductive hazard?” TS 10:48  “NIOSH can't say what's right for every situation, but some organizations have suggested further precautions such as temporary alternative duty for workers who are pregnant or are looking to become pregnant. NIOSH can't say what's best for any given facility, but other organizations have given some good suggestions you may want to look into.” TS 13:18  “The list doesn't really rank hazard. I know a lot of people have kind of treated it that way a lot of times. We don't say that something is less hazardous if it's only a developmental or reproductive hazard, because if you're trying to have a child, then that's an important hazard to you. And we don't necessarily say something that's carcinogenic is more hazardous.” TS 14:34  “Some standard setting organizations have set standards for handling. Really in the oncology setting, particularly oncology pharmacy setting, it's really changed how some of the handling happens there because some of the standards come out of the pharmacy world. And what's happened there is some drugs that are oncology drugs, they might have been on table one before just because they were used in the treatment of cancer. They were antineoplastics, so they were on table one. Now, because they're not identified as a potential carcinogen and they don't have manufactured special handling information, they are now on table two.” TS 23:39  “Occasionally, if a drug comes out and has manufacturer special handling information, we'll go ahead and add it to the list. And since we won't add it into the publication, we typically have a table on that page that puts that there. If a drug is reevaluated and we find that the hazard is not as bad as expected or it's not a hazard, actually, and we can remove it from the list; sometimes we get new information and that happens.” TS 30:30

Does your doctor seem more focused on their screen than on you?  Two-thirds of physicians are now using AI for everything from billing to diagnosis - but here's the kicker - only 38% actually trust the technology. This brewing healthcare disaster isn't just about robots taking doctors' jobs; it's about who's accountable when AI makes a potentially life-altering mistake with your medical information, and why insurance companies are salivating at the thought of using algorithms to deny your claims even faster. Listen as Jeremy, Jason, and Zach dive into the alarming rise of AI in healthcare, how to find meaning in your fitness journey when depression makes everything feel pointless, and why sometimes treating your workout like wiping your ass is the perfect mental approach to consistency. Topics Discussed Why 66% of physicians are using AI despite only 38% trusting it - creating a dangerous accountability gap in healthcare How insurance companies will likely use AI to deny claims faster rather than improve patient care The potential for errors in medical records when AI is used to generate and update patient information The challenge of determining liability when AI contributes to medical errors Using workout data tracking to combat depression's lie that "nothing is working" How Jeremy discovered he'd doubled his strength despite feeling like he wasn't making progress The value of consistency over intensity when building healthy habits Why treating workouts like mundane necessities (like wiping your ass) helps with consistency Finding meaning in fitness when battling existential crises The importance of "showing up" rather than focusing solely on specific fitness goals Resources Research: American Medical Association report on AI adoption in healthcare ---- MORE FROM THE FIT MESS: Connect with us on Threads, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and Tiktok Subscribe to The Fit Mess on Youtube Join our community in the Fit Mess Facebook group ---- LINKS TO OUR PARTNERS: Take control of how you'd like to feel with Apollo Neuro Explore the many benefits of cold therapy for your body with Nurecover Muse's Brain Sensing Headbands Improve Your Meditation Practice.

Imagine a world in which companies could secretly export toxic waste and dump it in unsuspecting communities. Until the 1992 Basel Convention on the Control of Transboundary Movements of Hazardous Wastes and Their Disposal, there were no rules governing the international movement of toxic waste. Today, this convention ensures that such waste cannot be sent to unsuspecting recipients, particularly in the Global South. What makes this treaty so interesting to me is that it was inspired by an environmental scandal in the late 1980s, when an Italian company dumped toxic waste in the Nigerian town of Koko. The discovery of the waste sparked international outrage and led to stricter global regulations, including the Basel Convention. Joining me today to explain the impact of the Basel Convention is one of the world's foremost experts on environmental treaties, Maria Ivanova. She is the director of the School of Public Policy and Urban Affairs at Northeastern University and a professor of public policy. We kick off by discussing how this scandal led to a treaty on the international movement of hazardous waste, followed by a longer conversation about its lasting impact on the world today. This episode is produced in partnership with Lex International Fund, a philanthropic fund dedicated to strengthening international law to solve global challenges. It is part of a series that demonstrates the impact of treaties on state behavior, which we are calling "When Treaties Work."

A recent investigation has found high levels of lead, arsenic and cadmium in homes and schools near a plant in Mexico that processes hazardous waste from the U.S

In this episode of the You Are Not Broken podcast, Dr. Kelly Casperson interviews pharmacist Tara Thompson, discussing the intersection of women's sexual health and pharmacology. They explore the role of compounding in hormone therapy, the education gaps in pharmacy regarding hormones, and the influence of media on public perception of hormone replacement therapy. The conversation also addresses the challenges women face in obtaining testosterone prescriptions, the implications of hazardous medication labels, and the nuances between generic and brand name medications. They delve into the efficacy of different forms of progesterone and the potential benefits of extended-release formulations. In this engaging conversation, Dr. Kelly Casperson and Dr. Tara Thompson delve into the complexities of pharmacology, particularly focusing on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and the various delivery methods available. They discuss the innovative approaches in different countries, the importance of understanding different dosage forms like troches and buccal delivery, and the pharmacokinetics involved in hormone absorption. The conversation also highlights the interactions between hormones, particularly estrogen and thyroid management, and the benefits of injectable estrogen. They emphasize the need for personalized treatment options and the role of compounding pharmacies in providing tailored solutions for patients. The discussion concludes with a reminder that there are always options available for patients seeking hormonal therapies. Takeaways Pharmacists often lack training in women's sexual health and hormones. Education is crucial for pharmacists to support women's health effectively. Media can misrepresent the risks associated with hormone replacement therapy. Hazardous medication labels can create unnecessary fear around hormone therapy. Compounding pharmacies can provide tailored hormone therapies for women. There are significant challenges in prescribing testosterone for women. The differences between generic and brand name medications can affect efficacy. Topical progesterone may not provide the same benefits as oral forms. Extended-release formulations of progesterone can improve patient outcomes. Troches and buccal delivery offer unique advantages. Transdermal testosterone may be preferred over oral forms. Hormonal interactions require careful monitoring. Injectable estrogen can provide steady-state delivery. Personalized hormone therapy is essential for patient care. Compounding pharmacies can offer tailored solutions. Patients should not feel limited in their options. Education on hormone therapy is crucial for healthcare providers. There is always an option for patients in need.

EP. 187: Feeling “off” but can't put your finger on why? You're not alone. Low estrogen can show up in surprising and subtle ways that even most doctors don't recognize—but these symptoms can profoundly impact your health and quality of life. In this episode, I'm breaking down 5 hazardous signs of low estrogen that every woman should know.

Clare County Council is urging people not be complacent, as travelling conditions remain hazardous on roads and underfoot. Although a status yellow warning for ice and low temperatures will lift at 12 noon today, accumulations of snow and black ice are reported throughout the county following overnight rain, particularly in parts of West and North Clare. In accordance with the local authority's Winter Maintenance Plan, gritting crews continue to salt priority routes up to three times daily. But Clare County Council Senior Engineer Cyril Feeney says surfaces can be dangerous even after their treated.

As the low temperature warning looks set to last throughout the week - counties which experienced the brunt of the heavy snowfall fear further freezing conditions. Hazardous roads conditions, many communities have had the added challenge of powercuts and disruption to water services. Reporter John Cooke was live from Patrickswell in Co Limerick.

In this episode of the Kansas Canopy Podcast, we explore the Blue Rapids Hazardous Tree Mitigation and Forest Renewal Project, a standout example of effective community forestry.

Summary: Grab your ouija boards and candlesticks, folks, it's time to get messages from the other side! Today, Holly and Devin dabble in the world of Mediums! Whether you've visited a medium yourself or don't believe in ghosts, our hosts are leaning into spooky season by discussing books that feature folks who can (well, can they really, though?) commune with the beyond.  Topics Discussed: The Heart (5:01): Devin discussed Happy Medium by Sarah Adler, a spooky romance following Gretchen Acorn, a grifter who delights and consoles the grieving of DC by “channeling” their dearly departed. When her best (richest) client asks her to speak to a ghost who is making it impossible for her bridge partner to sell his farm, Gretchen reluctantly agrees. When she realizes that a) the bridge partner is NOT an old, crotchety man named Charlie Waybill but a super sexy youthful farmer and b) that the ghost is real and named Everett, Gretchen has to confront that maybe she's less of a fraud than she thought, and in much bigger trouble than she ever thought possible. Devin's key takeaways were: Our protagonist presented as a fraud is a surprise at the start but adds authenticity to the rest of the story. In DC she uses her roommate who works various service jobs and a ton of internet sleuthing about the dead person, but heading to Gilded Creek Goat Farm her facade fades away and all she's left with is a real ghost and her annoying, growing feelings for a real life man.  Gretchen, Everett and Charlie must all face the gap between who they pretend to be and who they actually are over the course of the book. While Gretchen is a straight up grifter, all three of them have falsehoods and fake parts of their lives (or afterlives) that are holding them back and keeping them from living authentically and, for the living, finding love. This bucolic setting of Gilded Creek was phenomenal. The old farm with lots of knitted sweaters and afghans, early mornings and willow trees by brooks with weekly farmer's markets was idyllic and the perfect setting for this slightly spooky, very wholehearted story. The Dagger (17:30): Holly discussed Hazardous Spirits by Anbara Salam, a psychological historical fiction novel set in 1920s Edinburgh, Scotland that follows Evelyn Hazard as she sprints to her sister's house to call a doctor for her husband, Robert. He's started acting strangely and saying he can see spirits, and Evelyn worries he is losing his mind. But is he? Tension mounts as Evelyn grapples with the social and logistical implications of the one person who might reveal what she's hiding about the death of her sister, Dolores. Holly's key takeaways were: This story draws you in from the very start; the narrative is close third person so the reader is only shown part of what is happening and is dropped into the world by following Evelyn around as she's navigating this new, scary situation.  While yes there is tension and suspense, Salam also explores beautifully the nature of grief; Robert wants to use his gift to help comfort people who have lost loved ones, which is almost everyone because of the recent world war and flu epidemic.  The characterization across the board from protagonists to side characters is fantastic; Evelyn and Robert are super interesting as well as Evelyn's mother; Salam captures the small, pathetic moments of being human that anyone can relate to while also exploring the supernatural.  Hot On the Shelf (33:23): Devin: Briefly Perfectly Human by Alua Arthur, Death Doula Holly: The Empusium by Olga Tocarczuk What's Making Our Hearts Race (38:24): Devin: The Decameron on Netflix Holly: Beetlejuice Beetlejuice   Instagram: @heartsanddaggerspod Website: www.heartsanddaggerspod.com   If you like what you hear, please tell your friends and rate and review us on Apple Podcasts and Spotify so that we can find our perfect audience.

Since dropping his debut album Hazardous in 1991, Godfather Don has been popping periodically and reminding us that his sword remains sharp. His latest project, Thesis, is a testament to the enduring power of hard beats and straight-ahead rhymin'. Not content with just killing it lyrically, GFD has also become a saxophonist of note in the NYC scene. The Godfather took a break from his gig in Brooklyn to chat about his long career, and rapping and playing sax feed off each other. In the intro, the crew goes deep on the best rapper second acts and what they'd do if they ever had to trade in the super glamorous podcast life.

“The reality is that we are responsible for creating a culture of safety together for everybody in the clinical area. We have to think not only about ourselves and our personal risk, but how exposure to these hazardous drugs persists in the work environment for everybody. And we have to be part of the solution for everybody, even if it's not something that we're personally really worried about being exposed to,” AnnMarie Walton, PhD, MPH, RN, OCN®, CHES, FAAN, associate professor at Duke University School of Nursing in Durham, NC, told Lenise Taylor, MN, RN, AOCNS®, BMTCN®, oncology clinical specialist at ONS, during a conversation about updates to the fourth edition of Safe Handling of Hazardous Drugs, one of ONS's book publications.

Highlights From This Episode “We know that this book is used in practice sites across the country and increasingly around the world, and we have the privilege of answering lots of questions of ONS's members routinely. And we've also been part of writing guidance documents for ONS. And so, we utilized, as well, some of those questions that have come to us, and we know what people want to know more about. So we've made sure that we've developed a book that would be the most helpful in clinical practice settings.” TS 2:42 “We ensured that the book was in alignment with all of the most recent organizational position statements, standards, and recommendations. And there have been some big ones between the publication of the third and fourth book. So USP 800 is one that everyone knows about, and that became enforceable in November of 2023. … The ONS/HOPA [Hematology/Oncology Pharmacy Association] position statement, which was most recently updated in 2022, was also folded into this book. NIOSH [National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health] came out with two new guidance documents in 2023, and I had the opportunity to serve as a reviewer on one and a contributor to the other. Those two NIOSH guidelines have been folded into this book And then the ONS Chemotherapy and Immunotherapy Guidelines and Recommendations for Practice, which MiKaela Olsen was a lead editor on and I was an author for, have also been folded into this text.” TS 7:01 “We've understood the NIOSH hierarchy of controls for years, and if we look at that hierarchy, it tells us that PPE is important but also the least effective when it comes to controlling exposure. And what's slightly more effective is administrative controls, which are things like changes in our practices, more education, and training. And then even more powerful than administrative controls are engineering controls, and these are your closed-system transfer devices, for example, that are really important in minimizing exposure.” TS 10:31 “[Toilet pluming] is a place that I, for better or worse, spend a lot of time. And I have a colleague, Tom Connor from NIH [National Institutes of Health], who likes to joke when people ask him about his work. He says, ‘Oh, it's in the toilet.' And so I'm going to steal that from him and say a lot of my research is in the toilet, too.” TS 13:16 “I feel like people don't know how contaminated toilets are and how contaminated floors are. And I've already told you my tip about leaving your work shoes outside. But I think if people were more aware that the toilets and the floors are often the most contaminated places on a unit, there would be more attention paid to people who are coming into contact with those surfaces and bear a lot of the exposure risk.” TS 22:51
