What is one interesting piece of information you learned about in the video that you might not have considered before in terms of safety in a healthcare setting?

Pretend you will be working as a camp counselor at Insight Kids Explorers Camp!
There are lots of activities planned for kids of all ages, interests and abilities at this (fictional) 2 week overnight camp. 

As part of the counselor leader team, you are going to help create the camp safety plan so that other counselors can be trained and a emergency action plan is in place in the case of a real-life emergency.

Create a safety presentation
Your training presentation can be in the form of a short video or PowerPoint/Google slides presentation.

At minimum, you should include:
1. A description of why a safety plan is important in a workplace setting. (5 points)

2. Describe one element of basic safety (hand-washing, biomechanics, what PPE should be used at a first aid station) and instruct the counselors in how that can safely perform one of their job functions. Include a visual element that can be posted a (10 points)

3. Describe one emergency situation that you could prepare for and write a short action plan to remind the counselors what they should do in that situation. (examples you may choose: a bear is found outside of the bunkhouse, a tornado warning, a storm that causes power outages, etc) (10 points)

Neat, well organized presentation or clear audio for recorded presentations (5 points)
Attach your presentation with the blue plus sign or include a link to your shared document. Be sure that the file can be viewed by anyone with the link

The question below is optional but can be used to boost your score by 5 points if you do not earn full credit on the presentation in question 2. The maximum score you can earn on this assignment is 30 points.
