As part of Child Safety Week 2020, iHV is delighted to share its latest resource for parents: iHV Parent Tips – Accidental poisonings , written with support from the Child Accident Prevention Trust (CAPT).
The largest number of childhood accidents happen in the home. Coronavirus “lockdown” means that children will be spending much more time at home and we need to more careful to keep them safe from harm. Our homes and gardens are full of harmless-looking products that we use everyday which can be dangerous if your child accidentally puts them in their mouth or swallows them.
Please share.
This Parent Tip joins our suite of Parent Tips – our helpful factsheets to help parents to find expert advice on key areas of looking after their new baby from when they are born to when they go to school. Written by experts in the field, they cover topics such as feeding, health, behaviour and development, and are based on up-to-date research and the experience and knowledge of real-life health visitors working across the UK.
