Children falls prevention poster
This poster provides information on steps to prevent falls and serious injuries in children.
Falls are the leading cause of injuries treated in hospitals across all age groups, and even infants are at risk. Children are naturally curious and often tend to climb on everything they see, increasing their chances of falling.
By following the guidelines outlined in this poster, caregivers can help create a safer environment for children and reduce the risk of falls and injuries.
