OK so we might have just missed accident prevention week... however, as we point out - children have accidents all year round!

Amy and Jen dig into the Public Health England guidance released in March 2018 on unintentional injuries in the home in the under fives. What are the 5 most common injuries and what is the health visitor's role in trying to prevent them.

Thank-you very much for listening to our podcast, as ever we would love to hear from you. Drop us an email to iamahealthvisitor@gmail.com
