A developmental approach to childhood safety education
Abstract
Injuries are the leading cause of childhood mortality in the United States. Both susceptibility to injuries and understanding of safety issues are significantly influenced by a child's developmental level. Knowledge of developmentally based teaching strategies will enable nurses to provide effective safety education to parents and children.
