Unintentional Injuries
Unintentional injuries are accidents that occur without intent to harm, often resulting from everyday activities. Common examples include slips and falls, car accidents, and drowning. These injuries can happen to anyone, regardless of age or background, and can lead to serious consequences, including hospitalization or long-term disability.
Preventing unintentional injuries involves awareness and safety measures. Simple actions like wearing seat belts in cars, using helmets while biking, and keeping walkways clear can significantly reduce the risk. Education about safety practices is essential in minimizing these incidents and protecting individuals in various environments, such as homes, schools, and workplaces.
