  • Alyssa O.
  • Walden University

2
Welcome food preparers!

Learning Objectives
  • You will learn
  • What salmonella is
  • Symptoms of salmonellosis (salmonella infection)
  • Why it is important to prevent the spread of
    salmonellosis
  • How to prevent the spread of salmonellosis when
    preparing food

  • Facts to keep in mind with some household pets in
    regards to preventing salmonellosis

First, you will learn some facts about salmonella
5
How Common is Salmonellosis?
  • Approximately 40000 people are diagnosed each
    year
  • There are approximately 400 deaths per year
  • Salmonellosis most commonly affects children and
    the immuno-compromised, but everyone is at risk.

You should know now that salmonellosis is
relatively common- everyone is at risk.
7
Now you will learn why it is important to try to
prevent salmonella infection
8
Why is it important to protect against Salmonella?
  • Has anyone ever had food poisoning before?
  • Has anyone ever had food poisoning from
    Salmonella before?

Possible Long Term and Severe Consequences of
Salmonellosis
  • If symptom of diarrhea is severe, it might
    necessitate hospitalization.
  • If the salmonella enters the blood stream, it can
    cause death.
  • Development of Reiters syndrome which can
    sometimes lead to chronic arthritis

Re-adressing why it is important to protect
against Salmonella
  • Infection with salmonella, salmonellosis, results
    in uncomfortable symptoms that can cause
    long-term problems or even death

References Centers for Disease Control (2010).
Division of foodborne, bacterial, and mycotic
diseases Salmonellosis. Retrieved January 14,
2010 from http//www.cdc.gov/nczved/dfbmd/disease_

r/en/5keys_en.pdf
12
You should now know that it is important to
prevent salmonellosis because it causes short
term discomfort and can also cause longer term
discomfort and sometimes even death.
13
We will now learn about what salmonella is.
14
Information about Salmonella
  • Salmonella is a type of bacteria that has been
    around for over 100 years
  • Salmonella is transmitted through feces and can
    live in the intestinal tracts of animals and
    humans
  • Salmonella is usually transmitted through
    infected foods

Question
  • How can you tell if a food is infected with
    salmonella?

Question
  • Are certain foods more likely to carry salmonella
    than others?

17
You should now know that salmonella is a bacteria
that is mainly transmitted through foods.
Infected foods do not necessarily look different
than non-infected foods. Raw and undercooked
foods, particularly meat and eggs, as well as
unpasteurized dairy products are most risky.
18
We will now learn about how to prevent
transmission of salmonella when preparing food.
19
Ways to Prevent Contamination
  • Avoid cross contamination
  • Wash thoroughly
  • Cook thoroughly

20
Avoid Cross-Contamination
  • Keep uncooked meat, eggs, and dairy products
    separate from cooked foods, ready to eat foods,
    and produce

21
Washing
  • Wash all materials used in food preparation with
    raw meat, eggs, and/or dairy (such a cutting
    boards, knives, utensils, bowls, etc.) thoroughly
  • Wash counters thoroughly if they came into
    contact with uncooked foods
  • Wash hands (1) before preparing food, (2) between
    preparing different food items, and (3) after
    preparing food

  • Meat should not be raw or pink in the middle.
  • Eggs should not be served raw or undercooked.
  • You should not use unpasteurized dairy products.

Question
  • If you have salmonellosis, should you be
    preparing food for others? Why or why not?

24
You should now the three main ways to prevent
transmission of salmonella preventing
cross-contamination, washing, and cooking foods
thoroughly. If you have salmonellosis, you should
avoid preparing or serving foods for others until
it resolves.
25
You will now learn about animals that can pose a
risk for transmission of salmonella, including
some household pets.
26
Risk from Pets and Animals
  • Reptiles and birds are likely to carry
    salmonella.
  • Be very careful if these animals are family pets
    in terms of washing your hands (after contact
    with pets or their feces or areas they have been
    on) and keeping pets separate from human food and
    food preparation areas

27
You should now know that reptiles and birds can
transmit salmonella. You should now also know
that there are precautions you should take if
these animals are household pets in your
residence or if you spend time with these animals.
28
Sometimes you may not be the one who prepared the
food you are consuming. You will now learn about
ways to try to avoid consumption of contaminated
food.
29
How to try to Avoid Eating Contaminated Food
  • Dont eat unpasteurized milk or dairy products
  • Dont eat raw or undercooked eggs or meat (meat
    should not be pink in the middle)
  • Wash produce thoroughly before eating

eating contaminated food- basically, avoid
undercooked or raw meat and eggs as well as
unpastuerized dairy products.
31
You will now learn about what to do if you or
someone else contracts salmonellosis.
32
What to do if you or someone else contracts
Salmonellosis
  • Contact the local health department.
  • See a doctor if you are very ill or symptoms
    persist longer than a few days
