Pediatric Injury Prevention

Pediatric injury prevention focuses on reducing accidents and harm to children, who are more vulnerable due to their developmental stage. It involves educating parents and caregivers about safety measures, such as using car seats, ensuring home environments are free of hazards, and teaching children about safe play. Key areas include preventing falls, drowning, poisoning, and road traffic injuries. By raising awareness and implementing safety practices, we aim to protect children from injuries while they explore and learn about their world. Effective prevention strategies can significantly lower the rates of childhood injuries and promote healthier, safer environments for kids.
