Keokuk County Ambulance Crew Gets Anhydrous Training

 

            Travis Handy with Agriland FS, Hedrick held anhydrous ammonia training for the Keokuk County Ambulance crew Friday, April 10. Travis went over what anhydrous ammonia could do if an individual came into contact with it, the proper protective wear and how to care for an individual that did come into contact with it.

            Travis used a banana peel to show what the anhydrous will do to a person’s skin, a grape to show what it will do to a persons eyes and a dollar bill to show how it will take the moisture out of a persons skin. He expressed how important constant flow of water is if a person were to come into contact with anhydrous. The banana peel cracked into several pieces from being bent, the grape shattered and the dollar bill shrank in size from all of the moisture that was sucked out of it.
