<h2 class = 'uawtitle'>You Can Avoid Injury - It Takes Preventable Measures</h2><div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawbyline'>by C. R. Bolden</div><div class='uawarticle'><br />Everyone should know injury can happen to anyone at any given time. In most cases you can avoid injury, you just have to think about what you can do to prevent an injury before it happens. Each year more than 400,000 Americans are killed or maimed as a result of preventable injury. More than half of all deaths before the age of 45 are due to injury. Yet we still don't think it can't happen to us. Lets go over some injuries that can be preventable:<br />
<br />
Seat belts - Driving with your seat belts on can reduce dealth and injury by 75%, but only when people wear them. You should wear seat belts all the time. It doesn't matter if you're a driver or passenger. Especially little kids, people tend not to buckle up the kids. Now you should know better than this - mostly children and young adults, die or suffer severe head injury because they neglected to wear seat belts.<br />
<br />
Water - Drownings are also usually preventable. You have to use common sense when dealing with water. Watch the kids whether they are in a pool, lake or swimming in the sea. When you're on a small boat, wear the life preservers. Don't go boating with impaired captain and its good not to be one yourself. <br />
<br />
Fire - Fires are usually preventable tragedies. They're started by overloaded electrical systems, faulty heaters, smoking in bed, hot ashes in garbage can, careless use of fireworks, playing with matches, inadequate fireplace screenings - all this can be avoidable. Now if you dont have no smoke alarms or fire extinguishers in your home you're not thinking ahead to prevent a fire. When it comes to a possible fire, think about the probabilities, risks and take action to protect yourself.<br />
<br />
Falls - Most broken bones are caused by falls and can be preventable. It could be clutter in your home, maybe nothing to hold onto in the bathroom, poor lighting, are you wearing the right shoes, careless use of a ladder, falls can happen when you use too much alcohol and drugs - all this can be preventable.<br />
<br />
Firearms - Man shoots wife. Wife shoots husband. Kid shoots kid. Drunk shoot drunk. These accidents just dont happen. If you have guns in your house, think ahead, consider the risks and probabilities, and take action to ensure that the wrong finger can't be on the trigger of a loaded gun at the wrong time.<br />
<br />
Because we get away with so many risky behaviors, we tend to feel immune from such bad luck ourselves. Just think about when a loved one, friend, or neighbor is killed or maybe crippled, reading about tragedies in the newpapers, we tend not to associate them directly with our own lives. True, there are some unavoidable risks. But we can avoid 90% of our risk by our own actions.</div><div class='uawresource'><div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawabout'><br />
