About the Author
Each year, around one in four children sustain an unintentional injury that requires medical care. The WVU Medicine Children’s Injury Prevention and Safety Program provides childproofing education to prevent those injuries. The team consists of Coordinator Remington Rasel, Injury Prevention Specialist Kalie Perdue, and Injury Prevention Specialist Abby Rader. This group also provides car seat safety education, including car seat inspections and installations.
