Falls are the leading cause of emergency room visits for all ages, but most falls are preventable.
Children
Children birth to four years grow and develop new skills constantly. They love to explore, but are not able to understand or recognize dangers that can cause them to be injured.
Visit our Child Safety page to learn more about how both supervision and changes to your home will help keep your child safe.
Youth and teens
Most falls among older children and teens happen when they are involved in sports and recreational activities. Learn about concussion prevention and bicycle safety information. Parachute Canada has additional information on injury prevention.
