Johns Hopkins Occupational Safety and Health Education and Research Center

描述(由申请者提供)：项目摘要：约翰霍普金斯大学教育和研究中心(ERC)培养职业健康和安全研究和实践方面的领导者。硕士和博士(PhD、DrPH、ScD)培训内容包括职业和环境卫生(1.5年MHS；4年至5年博士)、职业与环境健康护理(1年mph；1.5年MSN/mph；4年至5年博士)、暴露和敏感性生物标志物研究培训(4年至5年博士)、职业伤害流行病学和预防(4年至5年博士)和职业医学住院医师培训(2年)。继续教育和外展部分将核心计划的优势带给从事职业健康和安全实践的专业人员。试点项目研究培训计划为本地区学术机构的学生和初级教师提供研究性学习支持。最后，这份申请提出了一项新的倡议，为计划进入学术生涯的杰出学者开发一个跨学科培训计划。其目标是为职业安全与健康教育项目培养合格的教师。与试点项目研究培训计划一样，Nora学者计划将重点放在Nora II，即以部门为基础的优先领域。每个项目的年度实习生平均有职业健康护理10人，职业医学6-8人，职业卫生20人，生物标记物研究8-10人，伤害预防5-6人。继续教育计划每年至少惠及1000名学生。相关性：美国约有1.2亿工人的工作相关健康、生活质量和生产力受到健康和安全专业人员的专业知识的直接或间接影响。工人的健康需求最好是由专业人员组成的综合团队来满足，这些团队经过培训，能够在互动环境中工作，提供护理、制定政策、设计和管理健康和安全计划，并进行研究，发现新知识，促进该领域的知识体系。约翰霍普金斯大学教育和研究中心培训职业卫生员、护士、医生、伤害流行病学家和专门研究人员以实现这一目标，并为执业社区合作伙伴提供教育和外展机会。因此，该中心通过其跨学科培训任务，建设国家能力，以评估风险、检测和评估弱势群体，并提供具有成本效益和最先进的护理，以预防和减轻工作场所的健康威胁。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Project Summary: The Johns Hopkins Education and Research Center (ERC) prepares leaders in occupational health and safety research and practice. Master's and doctoral (PhD, DrPH, ScD) training is provided in occupational and environmental hygiene (1.5 yr MHS; 4-5 yr PhD, DrPH), occupational and environmental health nursing (1 yr MPH; 1.5 yr MSN/MPH; 4-5 yr PhD, DrPH), biomarkers of exposure and susceptibility research training (4-5 yr PhD, DrPH) occupational injury epidemiology and prevention (4-5 yr PhD) and residency training in Occupational Medicine (2 yrs). Continuing Education and Outreach components bring the strengths of the core programs to practicing occupational health and safety professionals. A Pilot Project Research Training Program provides research study support to students and junior faculty at academic institutions within our region. Finally, this application proposes a new initiative to develop an interdisciplinary training program for exceptional scholars who plan to enter an academic career. The objective is to prepare qualified faculty for OHS educational programs. Like the Pilot Project Research Training Program, the NORA Scholar program will emphasize the NORA II, sector-based priority areas. Annual trainees per program have averaged 10 in occupational health nursing, 6-8 in occupational medicine, 20 in occupational hygiene, 8-10 in biomarkers research, and 5-6 in injury prevention. The continuing education program reaches at least 1,000 students per year. Relevance: There are approximately 120 million workers in the U.S. whose work-related health, quality of life, and productivity are affected directly or indirectly by the expertise of health and safety professionals. The health needs of workers are best met by integrated teams of professionals, trained to work in an interactive setting, to provide care, set policy, design and manage health and safety programs, and conduct research that discovers new knowledge to advance the body of knowledge in this field. The Johns Hopkins Education and Research Center trains occupational hygienists, nurses, physicians, injury epidemiologists, and specialized researchers to achieve this goal and also provides educational and outreach opportunities to practicing community partners. Thus, this center, through its interdisciplinary training mission, builds the national capacity to evaluate risks, detect and assess vulnerable populations, and deliver cost-effective and state-of-the-art care to prevent and mitigate health threats in the workplace.
