Home safety for the family
I learned about home safety the hard way, but you don't have to. Let me share my experiences and knowledge with you.
Is your family and home safe?
What do you do If...
your toddler is
choking because he has a candy stuck in this throat;
your husband has
fallen off a ladder and is complaining that his toe is sore while clutching,
white faced, at his belly;
your young daughter has just "shaved" a strip of skin off her shin with the razor that you left in the bathroom after you shaved your own legs;
your baby has developed a sudden high temperature and is now having a seizure; your five year old son, together with his
four year old cousin, are sitting three stories up, on the top branches of a very large Christmas tree. All these disasters happened in my home, I never practiced home safety as I should have done. Don't let them happen in yours!
Don't lose your sense of humour. I giggled continually while I
climbed the Christmas Tree to rescue my son and nephew, with my husband
offering advice from below, (he was too heavy to get up to those thin
top branches). It could have been worse. They could
have fallen. It wasn't worth frightening them or anybody else.
Child and home safety should be the watch-word in every home whether you have children or not. I am quite certain that no matter what your age is, you have family and friends who have little people clutching at their knees, or perhaps you have grandchildren or nieces and nephews.
Have you considered the importance of baby proofing your home to protect young visitors?
Your health and safety and that of those that surround you in your home is, your responsibility. Whilst your own children may be adults, their toddlers and infants still have a long way to go.
Practice safety in the home on an ongoing basis. Don't forget that family safety also includes knowing first aid.
Should something go wrong, whether it is an elderly person having a heart attack, or a toddler getting at the weed killer you accidently left where he could reach it, you should know what to do.
There is a lot of information inside this website, and lots more still coming. Study it and tell your friends about it.
