INJURY PREVENTION FOR CHILDCARE PROVIDERS
Unintentional injuries threaten the well being of American children. Most injuries can and should be prevented. Injury prevention training should precede CPR/first aid training. Working to eliminate potential hazards in a childcare setting is the logical way to reduce the need for first aid care. Developing safety strategies and emergency action plans is a proactive step towards reducing the possibility for injury.
