poison safety education programs

Poison safety education programs aim to teach people how to prevent, recognize, and respond to poisoning incidents. These programs provide information on safe storage of chemicals and medications, identify common household and environmental hazards, and outline steps to take if poisoning occurs. The goal is to reduce accidental poisonings, especially in children, by increasing awareness and promoting preventative practices. Such programs often include community workshops, school lessons, and printed materials, empowering individuals to act quickly and effectively to protect themselves and others from harm caused by toxic substances.
