RISK ASSESSMENT ACTIVITY REPORT

Task

Risk Assessment Form

- Identifying, in the left hand column, at least 8 hazards, with a range across at least four topics from the syllabus eg; fire, manual handling, mechanical and electricity…etc
- Identifying in the next column who might be harmed by each hazard and how they will be harmed.
- Identifying in the next column what is already in place to control the risk.
- In the next column stating ‘YES’ if further controls are needed or ‘NO’ if existing controls adequately control the identified hazard (you need 3 control measures).

RISK ASSESSMENT ACTIVITY REPORT

- Identifying in the next column any additional control measures necessary to reduce the risk presented by each hazard (if you have 2 control measures in column 3, you should say YES and add one control measure in column 5)
- In the final column prioritizing proposed control measures using a numerical scale (5 as high priority (for high risk) and 1 low priority (low risk).

Note: You should submit risk assessment report in word doc on or before 24 June  2022 to BB Dropbox

The report doc name should use the following rules:

WORKPLACE RISK ASSESSMENT Examples Area/Unit/Department: Carpenter WorkshopCompleted by:  Group Names or Group #Review date: 5 April 2022 Activity: Crafting furniture piecesDate: 21 Mar 2022  HazardsWho might be harmed and howWhat is already being done to control the risk?Are further controls needed?Additional ActionsPriority1.      Wood dust – produced from circular saws when cutting pieces of timberThe workers carrying out the job, harm occurs as they inhale the dustWorkers wear dust masks during operationSupervision to ensure use of masksYes1.      The use of local exhaust ventilation to collect the dust as it is produced, prevents contamination of the immediate environment32. Electricity cables damaged on portable electrical drills, internal wires visibleOperators who use the drill may come into with exposed wires causing electric shock and possible burns1.     Pre-use checks of equipment before use should identify any cases of defective equipmentYesA sample of equipment should be inspected to ensure that this is not a common problem Need to develop a reporting system in order for workers to report suspected faults to management2 4

PLEASE DO NOT use these Hazards in your risk assessment report

Hazard identification

Good Examples on specific hazard:

1. Prolonged exposure to the loud noise produced from steel production machinery.

1. Overturning hazard occurs as a semi-truck is used to transport huge steel beam

3.   Exposure to wood dust produced by grinding machines

Who might be harmed and how

For the ‘who’ criteria, you should give thought to who might be harmed (groups of people likely to be affected e g visitors, staff, employees working in the area etc.)

For the “how” criteria, how they are likely to be harmed e.g. broken bones, asthma etc

NO Half mark if you state WHO only or HOW only Good Examples on Who might be harmed and how :

- Workers who are doing the job. Fatigue and stress might occur with the passage of time in addition to hearing damage.
- Workers who are carrying out the job. Their skin may come into contact with the hazardous substance and absorb it which cause living tissues to be destroyed.
- Workers and visitors may suffer temporary or permanent hearing damage from exposure to noise from drilling machines.

What’s already being done to control the risk? / additional controls

In this section, you should compare the existing controls with good practice and state either ‘yes’ or ‘no’ in the “any further controls” box.

If you decide no additional controls are needed, you should explain why no additional actions are required in the “additional” box.

Good Examples on What is already being done to control the risk?

- Workers are wearing ear plugs to reduce the effect of the noise.
- Inspections are done regularly to ensure use of PPE (Ear Plugs).

Additional actions

- Health surveillance should be monitored to ensure having effective control measures.

Priority

You should use realistic key to the priorities and use only numerical scale

Good Examples on Priority

1: (Lowest priority)

5: (Highest priority)

Review date

Good practice of Review date

The review date should be minimum 7 days after assessment date (for education only purpose)

and decide on the number of children they get. Society and economic aspects should therefore

not dictate the decision a woman makes regarding the same.

2.How does she believe access to birth control will change women’s lives?

She believes that birth control will create convenience for women as the same will allow

them to decide when to have kids and how many kids to bear. As such, it will promote economic

independence and reduce the economic hardships that stem from giving birth to many children

that one is unable to fully sustain. It will also help to manage women's health as the act of

bearing many children drains a woman and leads to other health complications. Good health

translates to increased productivity and as such a woman will be in a position to work for longer

hours and increase household income to sustain her family. The use of birth control will facilitate

women empowerment as it is a way of navigating feminine spirit which is essential in changing

the existing societal notions about women's role. Sanger foresaw if women would be capable of

Prescribing for Children and Adolescents

Off-label prescribing is when a physician gives you a drug that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved to treat a condition different than your condition. This practice is legal and common. In fact, one in five prescriptions written today are for off-label use.

Psychotropic drugs are commonly used for children and adolescents to treat mental health disorders, yet many of these drugs are not FDA approved for use in these populations. Thus, their use is considered “off-label,” and it is often up to the best judgment of the prescribing clinician. As a PMHNP, you will need to apply the best available information and research on pharmacological treatments for children in order to safely and effectively treat child and adolescent patients. Sometimes this will come in the form of formal studies and approvals for drugs in children. Other times you may need to extrapolate from research or treatment guidelines on drugs in adults. Each individual patient case will need to be considered independently and each treatment considered from a risk assessment standpoint. What psychotherapeutic approach might be indicated as an initial treatment? What are the potential side effects of a particular drug?

For this Assignment, you consider these questions and others as you explore FDA-approved (“on label”) pharmacological treatments, non-FDA-approved (“off-label”) pharmacological treatments, and nonpharmacological treatments for disorders in children and adolescents.
