What is PPE?Slide4
In an animal disease emergency PPE:
Protects responders from potentially harmful hazardsPrevents spread of hazards between
animals or locations

Hazard AssessmentSlide7
Risk assessment establishes:
Composition, magnitude of hazardLength of time PPE will perform at known level of protectionExertion level, extent of physical work to be performed while wearing PPEPerformed by Incident
Commander
or Safety Officer

PPE is not a first line of defense
Initial steps to eliminate hazards must be taken firstEngineering controlsAdministrative controls and work practices

Hazard ControlsSlide10
Engineering controls
Contain or remove a hazard through:Isolation
Enclosure
Ventilation
SubstitutionPrevent or reduce responder exposure
USDA APHIS and CFSPH
FAD PReP/NAHEMS Guidelines: Personal Protective Equipment - Overview
Hazard ControlsSlide11
Administrative controls
Regulate responders’ exposure to hazards through:Initiated policies
Directives
Other measures
Example: Responders exposure to a hazard is limited to less than length of work shift

Hazard ControlsSlide12
Implement training to reduce hazard exposure
IC determines when a hazardous situation must be enteredNeed for animal health personnel varies according to the emergency typeLess likely to respond to chemical or radiological emergency
Must be aware of your role

Hazard control measures based on:
Need, feasibility, efficacyBenefits of protecting human healthTotal costs of PPEIf PPE is deemed too costly, responders will not
enter the hazardous area or perform work

Training on PPE use reduces
responder hazard exposureEffective training programs combine multiple approachesCognitive
, affective,
applied
Remember, PPE is only effective when it is worn and used properly!

PPE Education and TrainingSlide16
PPE training programs should include:
Role of PPE and benefits of usePrecautions and limitations of PPERecognizing signs of cold/heat stressAppropriate PPE selection
Importance of proper fitting

PPE Education and TrainingSlide17
PPE training programs should include:
Donning, doffing, and the buddy systemDetection of damaged/broken PPESourcing of physicians/locations that can manage zoonotic diseasesStress-management
techniques
Decontamination,
storage, maintenance, and disposal

Based on RiskUSDA APHIS and CFSPH

Zoonotic risk
Low: little/no risk to human healthModerate: non-life-threatening riskHigh: life-threatening riskBiosecurity risk
Low: non-contagious or vector-borne
Moderate: contagious, low survival
High: highly contagious, high survival

PPE SelectionSlide22
PPE selection must consider:
Tasks assignedExertion level, extent of physical workTemperature, humidity, and time wornClassification of premises
Many things to consider, but preparation and training are
essential to a safe and successful response
