Culturally Sensitive Healthcare for Anabaptist (Amish/Mennonite) Populations

Description:  Anabaptist groups (plain people) are expanding in Kentucky with an estimated population of 10,000 individuals in 53 Anabaptist communities in the Commonwealth (Donnermeyer & Anderson, 2014). However, there are no known continuing education (CE) programs that address the skills needed to provide healthcare for these populations. This interactive module was developed to fill that void. The content was developed from research among Anabaptist populations (Garrett-Wright, Main, & Jones, 2017) and healthcare providers who have experience providing care for these populations.

CRUSHing Farmer Suicide

Description:  CRUSH-ing Farmer Suicide is a CE course on how to prevent farmer suicide through cultural respect, understanding, sensitivity, and humility (CRUSH). Across Kentucky there are close to 76,000 farmers providing food for the Commonwealth and the country. For many farmers, farming is more than just a job, it is a way of life. While there are many joys associated with farming, there are also a lot of stressors. These stressors have led to high rates of depression, anxiety, and suicide among the farming community.  This CE course will delve into the culture of farming and how knowledge of the farming culture can help you respond to a farmer in crisis.

• Describe the unique aspects of farm culture
• Identify contributing factors to farmers' stress
• Recognize and address the barriers to seeking care and signs and symptoms of common behavioral health issues among farmers
