Eric Clauss

0800-0930

Healthcare workers consistently strive to provide the highest quality of patient care while being bombarded with a variety of external factors. They are experts in dealing with high stress events and keeping calm during seemingly uncontrolled situations, but who do healthcare workers call for help when they are the ones in need? The cumulative stress is carried by all providers and affects each of us in different ways. This presentation will share through one individual’s personal journey, that which is often not talked about within the healthcare community. Learn strategies that can help you and your colleagues identify those at high risk and show you how to provide the appropriate assistance, ultimately increasing retention and reducing burnout in our profession. Organized Chaos: Four Patients and a Medic

Jason Dush

0945-1045

Should the rescuers move quickly through all the victims making some errors? Or, should they go more slowly, aiming for a higher degree of accuracy? Should they begin treatment, or finish the triage first? Should they start CPR on the victim who is in full arrest? The answers to these questions called for a sensible, orderly triage protocol for MCI’s. A search of paramedic training material and medical literature revealed several applicable concepts, but no specific, step-by-step plans for initial MCI triage for small scale incidents Dead bodies in the water: What is important for death investigation? Dr. Snell 1100-1200 Objectives: 1. Develop a better understanding of what is drowning, mechanisms and outcomes. 2. Develop a better understanding for scene approach 3.

Eric Clauss

1300-1400

Several elements cause challenges for the healthcare provider when caring for pediatric trauma patients including distractions, mechanisms of injury, and the anatomy and physiology. In this session, the speaker will discuss steps for assessment, treatment, and resuscitation for the pediatric trauma patient. “The Elephant in the room: When Medical Errors go bad.

Jason Dush 1430-1545

(New 2015) Think of a time when you heard of, personally know of, or committed a medical error while care was being provided. The amount of medical errors that go unreported unnoticed and covered up are shocking at best. In this enlightening session, Jason will take you on a journey as he uncovers some of the common medical errors and contributing factors that affect patient outcomes. 600 Seconds Lecture Presentations Topics will be on subjects related to patient approximately six topics, 10 min each. of positive comments from students the conferences have also been very

Course Details - Sunday, September 25, 2016 “It’s in our Back Yard: Domestic Terrorism on the Rise.”

Jason Dush

0800-0930

(new lecture 2014) Domestic Terrorism has become a big challenge for public safety and the health care industry facing everything from deadly mass shootings to bombings. Since 9/11, the number of state side incidents that are related to international terrorist groups to individuals acting alone are on the rise at a fast pace. The question remains, “What are we doing to be proactive vs. reactive?” Active shooter drills have become the norm for training law enforcement and first responders. Mass shooting protocols are starting to become a frequent policy addition for most agencies. Intelligence units within law enforcement are working more with federal assets to keep our communities safer. However we have to ask additional questions about whether we’re paying enough attention to domestic terrorism following the September 11, 2001 attacks. This session will evaluate numerous domestic terrorism events and address ways to improve situational awareness and challenges we continue to face. Lessons Learned from STANDING ON THE SHOULDERS OF GIANTS Eric Clauss 0945-1115 Would spending more than 100 hours shadowing the most successful executives in a toprated academic medical center change the way you view leadership? This presentation will challenge participants to evaluate their progress, and create positive change during times of uncertainty in EMS and healthcare. As these lessons are applied, participants will learn key fundamentals to build and strengthen their skills to benefit any team or organization. EMS is M.A.D. about Opioid Abuse in Iowa!

Jeff Messerole 1130-1230

Opioid abuse is epidemic across the country specifically the use of Heroin. With Iowa Governor Branstadt signing into law an act that would allow EMR’s and EMTs to administer Intranasal (IN) Naloxone to patients who have overdosed on an opioid, there is a need to understand how this law impacts services provided by EMS. Objectives: Review the law allowing all EMS providers to be able to administer IN Naloxone for Opioid OD Describe the types of Opioids most commonly used Discuss how to identify who is in need of IN Naloxone List the steps in administering IN Naloxone Identify treatment options after giving the IN Naloxone

“Social Media: Whats your policy?”

Chris Yungbluth 1330-1430

Social Media is everywhere and most of your younger volunteers are on it. Do they know what they should or should not post on social media? Have you told them? Do you have a social media policy for your volunteer or paid service? Should you? Chris will review some of the many options for your membership to post items to social media and what should or should not be posted. He will also provide you with the resources to get started on your own policy and guidelines if you do not currently have one in place. 600 seconds
