The Importance Of Child Car Sears And Current Challenge With Their Use

The Indiana University Health Bloomington Car Seat Program provides free car seat inspections and installations to families in Monroe County, Greene County, and Owen County. This program is a result of a funding partnership between IU Health Bloomington and Automotive Safety Program. The car seat technician does around 300 inspections and installations a year. The program sessions take place from 9:00a.m. to 3:00p.m. on Fridays at the Assisted Medical Transport Department garage, which is located at 630 South Patterson Dr. Bloomington, IN 47403. The inspection is completed in the participant’s vehicle. Most participants find out about the IU Health Bloomington Car Seat Program by referral from their pediatrician, family, friends or a community organization. While the program ideally targets low income families who fall under the Women, Infants and Children guidelines, families from all socioeconomic statuses are welcomed.

There are many people who do not understand the importance of seat belts for safety. They do not wear their seat belts even though they know the mortality statistics. Most of them think that seat belts do not help when an accident occurs. We have all made the excuse that the seat belt is uncomfortable. Driving is a dangerous duty that should always be practiced with more caution and care. Some people think that not wearing a seatbelt is rebellious. Other people think that they will never get into accident. Some of the consequences of not wearing a seat belt is that you could die, you can get injured and many more. So far, the only way to avoid these consequences from happening is to wear a seatbelt.

Risk for trauma related to misuse of seat restraints and physical proximity to vehicle pathways.

In the article Deaths in Hot Cars Nearly Triple, Steve Visser claims that the number of children who have died due to being left in hot car is quickly increasing in this year. There have been a lot of suggestions from experts about how to prevent these accidents, but a lot of similar cases still continue to happen. The claim of the article is explicit because it clearly and directly shows the topic which is the increase of hot-car deaths, the explanations, and the recommendations for the problem. The author gives some interview results to support his claim. For example, according to Amy Artuso, program manager for the council, there were 11 death cases in this year compared to 4 cases at the same time last year. Despite the fact that many parents

I lost a relative in a car crash. Can you imagine how I felt when I found out? He wasn’t wearing his seatbelt and was thrown off the road through the windshield. Car companies should start making cars that require everybody in the vehicle buckled up or else the car won’t start. Wearing a seatbelt reduces the chances of injury, also the law requires you to wear a seatbelt.

Introduction: In this assignment, I have been asked to explain and review legislation also to assess on how the care workers would monitor the risk and what they would do. Also, to discuss the dilemmas encountered in relation to implementing systems and policies for health and safety.

The physician survey consisted of twenty-one questions and a cover letter that disclosed the purpose of the study and was mailed in January of 2006 to three-hundred-forty-five primary care physicians. This survey looked at doctor knowledge and practice and was reviewed by certified car seat technicians, community stakeholders and regional childhood injury experts. In February and March of 2006 the researchers tried to contact the physicians that had not yet responded to the survey. All of the completed surveys were given a survey identification number. The questions on the survey asked about knowledge of belt-positioning booster seats, comfort level of recommending child restraints and the awareness of community resources for

The system failures identified by Judy Smetzer in the case of the newborn Miguel revealed interesting views concerning patient safety. In the article,” Lessons from Colorado: Beyond Blaming Individuals”, the difficulties of healthcare system and medication use system led to a fatal error that killed a newborn. This case emphasized that medication errors were not caused by a failure of one single element, but the whole system. According to Smetzer (1998), one of the system failures, “staff inexperience and poor documentation had tremendously contributed to the sentinel event of the article” (p.49). When health care providers put their actions lower than their knowledge, practice without proper safety measures and documentation, then it affects

Whether working as a nurse in the community or on an inpatient hospital unit it is important to continually offer education to families regarding appropriate practice for child passenger safety. Parents often base car seat selection on age of their child, but that is only one of the factors that

Children in belt-positioning booster seats were 45% less likely to sustain injuries than same-age kids in standard vehicle seats.

I’ve done a lot of research to prepare for this presentation and I have learned very much about this topic. Kids being without a booster seat can be very deadly even with just a seatbelt. The belt doesn't fit right so in a crash it can hurt them badly. Today I am going to try and persuade

Do you have a family member, or even yourself that has used a booster seat? Booster seats have been a cushion placed on a seat for a small child to sit on in a car. But come on, let's face it talking about what a booster seat is isn’t the main objective. We have all seen car wrecks time and time again, especially the ones that destroy you on the inside, even though it wasn’t or had anything to do with you. What I’m trying to get at is, imagine there being a child in that wreck. The first question would be were they in a car seat properly or even in a booster seat? Just for argument let’s say the child was in a booster seat. Now i'm going to ask the second most obvious question should children be in booster

A childs body temperature rises three to five times faster than an adult’s. This simple fact is a recipe for disaster when a child is left in a car. Each year an average of 38 children die of heatstroke in unattended cars. Over 60 percent of these deaths were complete accidents. Most people would be mad and claim that there is no such things as accidents when it comes to leaving a child in a car. That is very far from the truth; It is called Forgotten Baby Syndrome. These parents have had a major memory lapse and forgotten their child was there. Human memory is a very complex thing, and almost completely out of our control. There has been 647 recorded deaths since 1998. Accompanying these deaths has been over a hundred trials with charges of manslaughter. Should someone be charged with manslaughter if they had no control over what their memory was doing?

Many parents lack education on, or do not fully know, proper car seat use and the consequences of improper car seat safety implementation. Car seat safety is important for children as they face increase risk of injury at certain ages or physical size.

Did you know that every hour, someone dies in a car crash for not wearing his or her seat belt? When you are driving or even riding in a vehicle, buckling your seat belt will decrease your chance of death or serious injury, if you are involved in a severe accident. Seat belts are there regarding to your safety and protection for the prevention of your life being in danger. In 2015, seat belt use in passenger vehicles saved an estimated 13,941 lives, according to National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (Seat Belts np). Recognizing the importance, consequences, and how an individual can deal with the problem are the key aspects to this solution.
