Informed Parents- Safe Environment for Children

Öz

Objective: Childhood injury is a significant public health problem. This study aimed to evaluate the awareness of families about accident/injury risks both indoors and outdoors and provide counselling within the scope of parent education by using tools related to environmental safety. Material and Methods: This study was a two-centered, prospective study conducted with the participation of parents with children under the age of five. Initially, a preliminary assessment was made using a questionnaire. Then, face-to-face training was provided using an infographic brochure from the “Basic Information for Families for Child Health and Safety in the First 5 Years” booklet created by the Child Health Association (https:// cocuksagligidernegi.org/). Parents were given a “Safety Checklist” so they could assess child safety at home. In the third and sixth months, families were called and asked questions again about their attitudes and behaviors towards preventing accidents/injuries. Results: A total of 157 parents were included in the study. It was determined that the rates of safe behavior in-car safety, sleep safety, toy safety, kitchen and bathroom safety, and indoor arrangements increased statistically. Conclusion: Family counseling and education can lead to behavioral change to create a safe environment for children and prevent accidents/ injuries. Multifaceted initiatives are more likely to successfully reduce injuries at home and increase the effectiveness of education with the use of infographic materials, continuity of education, preparing checklists to be applied at home and sharing them with families.
