[MCOH-EH] First Receiver/ Decon Onboarding

[Mark Catlin]

Dear Tara,
Two good videos in the public domain are:
The Decontamination of Children, released by the DHHS's Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) in 2005.  The 27-minute video demonstrates for emergency responders and hospital emergency department staff how to safely decontaminate children who have been exposed to hazardous chemicals, including those from a bioterrorist attack.  The video outlines key differences between decontaminating children and adults; provides an overview for constructing portable and permanent decontamination showers and designating "hot" and "cold" zones; and, provides steps to establishing and maintaining a pediatric decontamination capacity in a hospital emergency department.  The entire video is available on YouTube at  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ctt6RJGMV9Y  or from DHHS at http://www.remm.nlm.gov/deconvideo.htm .

Don't Be a Victim: Medical Management of Patients Contaminated with Chemical Agents, from the Oak Ridge National Laboratory from 2003. Shot clip at http://youtu.be/VuJtxiCEpc4

I have several clips from both videos (and other videos that might be on use) posted to my YouTube channel at http://www.youtube.com/user/markdcatlin .  I can send you digital copies of the files if you'd like.
Best wishes
Mark

Subject: [MCOH-EH] First Receiver/ Decon Onboarding    Hello,    For those healthcare organizations that perform decon:    Are you doing any different/special onboarding for the staff who will be performing the decon?  For example, medical monitoring prior to donning PPE (vital signs, skin evaluation, mental status, medical history, ect).    If so, who is performing this medical monitoring in your facility?    Any you doing any post-entry medical monitoring?  For example, vital signs, oral rehydration, IV hydration.    If so, who is performing this medical monitoring in your facility?    Is your facility utilizing a Hazmat Medical Monitoring form?     If so, what does your form look like?    Thank you for your consideration!
