Accidents and your Child
Did you know that, on average, 47 injured children are treated in Emergency Departments in Bristol every day?
Most injuries can actually be prevented and many are caused simply by a lack of awareness. For example if you were asked what causes the most cases of serious childhood poisoning you’d probably guess bleach. In fact it is paracetamol!
