Injury prevention symposium.
Each year, thousands of preventable injuries occur in children as well as adults. Until recently, few programs existed to address injury prevention issues. Three programs which make a difference include The National Safe Kids Campaign, Think First and Mothers Against Drunk Driving. Each has a different focus and has opportunities for neuroscience nurses to become involved. Additional programs with measurable benefits need to be developed.
