Every thunderstorm produces lightning. In the United States, an average of 300 people are injured and 80 people
are killed each year by lightning. Although most lightning victims survive, people struck by lightning often report a
variety of long-term, debilitating symptoms. Other dangers associated with thunderstorms include tornadoes, strong
winds, hail and flash flooding…

This guide is to inform the Area I community of all relevant hazards and to provide preparedness information to the Soldiers, their Families, Civilians and contractors in our area.
Most experts recommend that outdoor athletic events should be postponed when the thunderstorm approaches from a distance of six miles. The best way to gauge the distance of a thunderstorm is to measure the elapsed time from the flash to bang. Since a count of five seconds equals a distance of one mile, a count of thirty seconds equals a distance of six miles. In most cases, when you can hear thunder, you are no longer safe.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Safety Tip: Lightning Safety on the Job
1. SAFETY TIP:
Lightning Safety on the Job
Lightning kills 54 people per year in the United States on average, but it
strikes hundreds more who are often left with lifelong debilitating injuries.
This has prompted the National Weather Service to develop a lightning safety
campaign, complete with free tool kits and more. Here are some lightning safety
tips:
When thunderstorms threaten, don't start anything you can't quickly
stop. Pay attention to early signs of thunderstorms: high winds, dark
clouds, rain, distant thunder or lightning. If these conditions exist, do not
start a task you cannot quickly stop.
Know your company's lightning safety warning program. Businesses that have high risk
functions such as explosive storage or field repairs should have a formal lightning warning
policy.
Assess your lightning risk and take appropriate actions. If you can hear thunder, lightning is
close enough to strike. Stop what you are doing and seek safety in a substantial building or a
hard-topped metal vehicle.
Know what objects and equipment to avoid during a thunderstorm:
o Stay off and away from anything tall or high, including rooftops, scaffolding, utility poles
and ladders.
o Stay off and away from large equipment such as bulldozers, cranes, backhoes, track
loaders and tractors.
o Do not touch materials or surfaces that can conduct electricity, including metal
scaffolding, metal equipment, utility lines, water, water pipes and plumbing.
o Leave areas with explosives or munitions.
If a worker is struck by lightning: Lightning victims do not carry an electrical charge, are safe to touch
and need urgent medical attention. Cardiac arrest is the immediate cause of death for those who die.
Some deaths can be prevented if the victim receives the proper first aid immediately. Call 9-1-1 and
perform CPR if the person is unresponsive or not breathing. Use an Automatic External Defibrillator if one
is available.
