Happy National Injury Prevention Day! ???? Preventing injuries at home starts with creating a safe space for young children. Everyday household items can pose risks, but a few simple changes can make all the difference. ?? Cover Electrical Outlets: Tamper-resistant outlet covers keep little fingers safe from hazards. ?? Store Small Items Safely: Batteries, coins, and small toys can be choking hazards—keep them in secure locations. ?? Secure Furniture: Anchoring heavy items like bookshelves and TVs can prevent tipping accidents. ?? Lock Cabinets and Drawers: Safety latches help keep cleaning products, medicines, and sharp items out of reach.
