SUMMARY:Farm Medic and Machinery Extrication Course
DESCRIPTION:Agriculture is one of the most dangerous industries in America. Every year needless injuries and deaths occur to farmers\, family members\, farm employees\, and rescue personnel. Emergency responders often lack knowledge of the nature of farm machinery\, chemicals\, and farm structures. Some rescue techniques may actually increase the risk to the victim and rescue personnel. Training and education in the methods of farm/rural rescue are essential for proper response and safety of the rescuer and patient. Georgia Emergency Medical Services Association’s goal it to teach a systematic approach to farm rescue procedures that address the safety of both patients and responders. \n\n\n\nCourse Location and Date: \n\n\n\n\nForsyth County – March 9 & 10\n\n\n\n\nThe first qualified 35 students will be accepted. Applicants beyond that will be placed on a waiting list. \n\n\n\nRegister at the link provided below:https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/FARM_MEDIC \n\n\n\nThe course registration fee is Grant funded. Lodging is not included with this course. Lunch is included. \n\n\n\nIf you have any questions concerning registration please contact Cathy White at program@georgiaemsassociation.com. \n\n\n\nThis Program is made possible by State of Georgia funding provided through the Georgia Trauma Care Network Commission.

SUMMARY:HAM Radio Training and Licensing
DESCRIPTION:Region J is committed to strengthening its communication redundancy by accessing more HAM radio operators within the region. Wayne Greene\, the Vice President of the Glynn Amateur Radio Association\, has agreed to host an in-person Technician level course and testing in Brunswick for our emergency managers and any others who are interested. \n\n\n\nThis training will be held over a two-day period\, Saturday (March 9th) & Sunday (March 10th)\, at the Glynn County EMA Training Center\, 157 Public Safety Blvd.\, Brunswick. The in-person testing will be administered two weeks later on Saturday (March 23rd) in order to give people time to study and to take online practice tests. \n\n\n\nRegion J is willing to sponsor one or two partners per facility. If two partners attend from a facility (if>50 miles)\, they must be willing to share a room. Region J will reimburse you if you take the test and pass for one-night hotel stay\, meals\, travel (if >50 miles) with appropriate receipts and the test registration fee. \n\n\n\nPlease click here to register for the training.
