Parent Training in Child Safety Practices

This project completed an intervention designed to teach parents of children aged 0-2 years of age how to prevent injuries to their child. The intervention consisted of a two DVD package with information on creating a safe home environment and correctly choosing and installing an appropriate car safety seat. The study hypothesis was that parents who used the intervention would score significantly higher on measures of knowledge, motivation, intention and self-efficacy in implementing injury prevention strategies.

Treatment and study plan

Keeping Baby Safe 2-DVD package

Behavioral

Keeping Baby Safe is a 2-DVD package that teaches childhood injury prevention skills to parents of children from birth to 24 months of age. One DVD addresses automobile passenger safety and focuses on the correct choice and proper installation of child safety seat for the age of the parent's child. The second DVD covers a core set of home safety skills: (a) preventing falls, (b) preventing fires and burns, (c) preventing poisoning, (d) firearm safety, (e) preventing drowning, (f) preventing suffocation and choking, (e) play equipment safety, and (f) animal safety. Content in the home safety DVD is based on information the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends that physicians provide to parents during well-baby visits.
