February 28, 2019 COMICS NEWS Methods for farmers, ranchers to manage stress according to Brotherson. "Farmers, ranchers and their fam- ily members and employees can learn to manage their stresses well, even during planting, harvesting or times of difficulty," he says. "The key is to be flexible and maintain a balanced lifestyle. Make time daily to take care of yourself because your work is vital to all of us. Your health is your most important asset on your farm or ranch operation. ” To help manage stress, Brother— son suggests: * Taking control of events by planning ahead and discussing who can be available to help before key seasons arrive — Make time to set pri- orities so you can focus on what needs to be done today and what can wait. * Taking control of attitudes that influence you — Identify the sources of the stress you have, and which ones you can and cannot change. Shift your focus off worrying and onto problem solving. Notice what you have achieved rather than what you did not accomplish. Set goals and daily expectations that are real- istic. How you view a situation is a key factor in creating or eliminating stress. * Controlling your responses to stressful conditions Take a break when feeling stressed, and focus on relaxing your body and mind. Take three deep breaths slowly and let go of unwanted stress. Think positive thoughts, balance work and play, find someone to talk to and seek help when you need it.

Spas are often associated with Legionnaires’ disease outbreaks due to their temperature and ability to aerosolize Legionella bacteria in small water droplets. Upon notification of the positive Legionella test on February 21, the hotel again drained and closed its spa until further notice and is committed to the public’s safety. The pool re- mains open. With support from the hotel, Fargo Cass Public Health will continue to work with the facility. “If you spent time at the hotel, especially in the water park area, between February 7 and 21 and are ill with undiagnosed pneumonia or you develop symptoms in the two weeks foilbwihg "visit, please see a health care provider to be evaluated for possible Legion- naire’s disease,” said Laura Cron- quist, epidemiologist with the N DDoH. “There are no recommen- dations to prevent illness once peo- ple have been exposed to Legionella bacteria. Instead, the focus is on rapid diagnosis and treatment if people develop symp- toms after a possible exposure.” lea ‘ .; fiflmmwmrfiu rescuer.
