Home Safety Checklist

Hi,

I’ve just found a very useful checklist to help you to make sure that your home is safe for children.

Here’s the intro:

“Homes are wonderful places to care for children, but
they are full of hazards including electrical appliances,
stairs, bathtubs, and dozens of poisonous medicines and
household cleaners.

Unintentional injuries cause the death of many children
and also leave more children crippled than do diseases.
Most injuries can be prevented if more care is taken.
There is no golden rule to prevent injuries, but you can
decrease the risks significantly by following the ideas
listed below. Use it as a checklist and find out how well
you are doing with safety in the house. Go over the
checklist from time to time to maintain safety.”
