NCB Now: News from Wales

Keep in Mind (KIM) is an aide-memoire developed by Children in Wales to help health visitors to identify the causes of fatal, serious and disabling injuries.

Accidental injury remains a leading cause of death for children with most of these injuries happening within the home. However, it has been shown that many health visitors have not received training in home accident prevention, and so KIM has been developed to help address this and raise awareness.

All health visitors in Wales are being given a free hard copy of KIM, and it is also available for download at www.childrenin wales.org.uk/areasofwork/childsafety

- Hard copies of KIM are now available to buy for £29.50 for 50 copies. For more information contact karen.mcfarlane@childreninwales.org.uk
