Nebraska

The Nebraska AgrAbility team finally enjoyed in-person interaction with attendees at Husker Harvest Days, the world's largest irrigated working farm show in the nation. Sleep deprivation education was featured as a prelude to harvest. Several clients joined the NE staff to chat with passers-by, and a few potential clients were interacting. Pictured is Will Meyer, talking to kids about his journey and how grateful he was for AgrAbility stepping in and talking with him about how he could still farm.

"Rehabilitating Farmers and Ranchers with Disabilities" was presented virtually to 27 OTs and PTs for continuing education units on September 27. The program is designed to help these health care providers become more competent in their care for the agricultural population they see on a regular basis. The Nebraska AgrAbility team partners with Christine Hutchinson, PT, DPT, as lead instructor for this annual event.
