SUMMARY:Navigating Pregnancy and Children's Health as our Climate Warms
DESCRIPTION:The summer of 2023 was Earth’s hottest since global records began in 1880 and projections for 2024 are for the trend to continue with temperatures to be among the 10 hottest summers on record. Climate change has been a driver of hotter summers. Extreme and consistent heat has health impacts on everyone\, but children and pregnant people have unique risks. \nThis webinar will delve into the physiological impact of heat on children and pregnant people\, focusing on particularly vulnerable populations. The presenters will also share some tips for keeping vulnerable populations and others safer on days that are dangerously hot. \n\nLearning Objectives\n\nIdentify the physiological impact of heat.\nState population vulnerabilities to heat related illness.\nDescribe three actions to reduce the health risks of heat.\n\n\nPresenters\nDaniel J. Smith\, PhD\, AGPCNP-BC\, CNE\, Assistant Professor\, Villanova University M. Louise Fitzpatrick College of Nursing is a doctorally prepared nurse practitioner and was a Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Future of Nursing Scholar. His overarching research interest lies at the intersection of understanding the effects of climate change on the health outcomes of disenfranchised populations and how we can build climate resilience and adaptation skills in communities & health systems. He also has expertise on the environmental determinants of health and has been the academic lead for community-based participatory research projects examining the impact of the lead exposure of immigrant families in Philadelphia\, PA\, and heat exposure on migrant farmworker families in Southeastern Georgia. He continues to hold a clinical practice one day per week and is fluent in Spanish. \nKatie Huffling\, DNP\, RN\, CNM\, FAAN is a Certified Nurse-Midwife and the Executive Director of the Alliance of Nurses for Healthy Environments (ANHE).
