Abstract

This study suggests that: (1) a program directed at a specific town and coordinated by a local community group is more effective in transmitting poison control knowledge than is a statewide poison prevention week effort; (2) that transmission of educational material is optimized through programs directed at a specific age group (in this study ages 6 through 14); and, (3) that information about where to get the poison center number and actual acquisition of Ipecac syrup in homes was well transmitted.
