TY - JOUR PY - 2014// TI - Creating a comprehensive bicycle safety program JO - Journal of trauma nursing A1 - Elwell, Sean A1 - Kulp, Heather A1 - McCue, Jennifer SP - 309 EP - 313 VL - 21 IS - 6 N2 - Trauma centers must play a role in injury prevention. Pediatric trauma centers have the ability to create injury prevention programs targeting all children. After analyzing our trauma registry data, we determined that bicycle injuries are a significant mechanism of injury in children and developed strategies aimed at preventing such injuries. Along with support from Kohl's Cares, we are able to achieve our mission of keeping children in our community healthy and safe. Our comprehensive bicycle safety program is targeted to various ages and learning styles and aims to increase bicycle safety and helmet use among children in our region.
