Awakenings: An Equine Assisted Learning Research Project

Objective. The purpose of this pilot study was to determine if and how the Awakenings Equine Assisted Learning program was effective at improving the professionalism, confidence, communication skills and adaptability of students preparing for careers as Anesthesiologist Assistants. Background. Equine Assisted Learning (EAL) is a rapidly growing experiential model that utilizes horses to enhance participants\u27 awareness of their own non-verbal language, communication styles, projection of self-confidence and competence, and problem-solving abilities (Chandler, 2012; Green, 2012, 2013; Kane, 2012; Trotter, 2012). Methods. As a part of their regular educational and clinical rotations, first year students in the Anesthesiologist Assistant (AA) program participated in a 6- week training that included weekly, 2 -hour Equine Assisted Learning (EAL) sessions. Each session, the AA students participated in a 2- hour experiential equine assisted activity, specifically designed to address a certain target area necessary for their development as professionals in this field. The participants completed a pre and post assessment with 93 items that measured development as they relate to the EAL sessions. Results. The data was analyzed using t-tests, exploratory factor analysis, and qualitative self-reports. Confidence, empathy, awareness, and communication were the most significant factors. Conclusion. The qualitative data reinforced the quantitative findings that showed significant improvement in the objective factors as a result of the EAL sessions

2016 Annex to the Model Aquatic Health Code : scientific rationale. 2nd edition, July 2016.

Posted on 07/18/2016This information is distributed solely as guidance for the purpose of assisting state and local health departments, aquatic facility inspection programs, building officials, the aquatics sector, and other interested parties in improving the health and safety at public aquatic facilities. This document does not address all health and safety concerns associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this document to establish appropriate health and safety practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to each use.The Model Aquatic Health Code (MAHC) is a set of voluntary guidelines based on science and best practices that were developed to help programs that regulate public aquatic facilities reduce the risk of disease, injury, and drowning in their communities. The MAHC is a leap forward from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention\u2019s (CDC) operational and technical manuals published in 1959, 1976, and 1981 and a logical progression of CDC\u2019s Healthy Swimming Program started in 2001. The 2016 MAHC underscores CDC\u2019s long-term involvement and commitment to improving aquatic health and safety. The MAHC guidance document stemmed from concern about the increasing number of pool-associated outbreaks starting in the mid-1990s. Creation of the MAHC was the major recommendation of a 2005 national workshop held in Atlanta, Georgia charged with developing recommendations to reduce these outbreaks. Federal, state, and local public health officials and the aquatics sector formed an unprecedented collaboration to create the MAHC. The MAHC will be regularly updated using input from a national stakeholder partnership called the Council for the Model Aquatic Health Code (CMAHC). The CMAHC was formed to keep the MAHC up to date and current with the latest advances in the aquatics industry while also responding to public health reports of disease and injury. The partnership hopes this truly will lead to achieving the MAHC vision of \u201cHealthy and Safe Aquatic Experiences for Everyone\u201d in the future.The 2016 MAHC utilized the first time CMAHC conference process to collect, assess, and relay MAHC Change Request recommendations to CDC. The first CMAHC Vote on the Code Biennial Conference was held October 6-7, 2015 in Phoenix Arizona, a little over one year after CDC\u2019s release of the 2014 MAHC, 1st Edition. CDC utilized CMAHC\u2019s input to revise the MAHC and plans to utilize the CMAHC conference process to update future versions of the MAHC.CS264311B2016-mahc-annex-final.pdfSupersede
