Injuries are the leading cause of death and disability among people under age 35 in the United States. Despite great strides in injury prevention over the decades, injuries result in 150,000 deaths, 2.6 million hospitalizations, and 36 million visits to the emergency room each year. Reducing the Burden of Injury describes the cost and magnitude of the injury problem in America and looks critically at the current response by the public and private sectors, including: Data and surveillance needs. Research priorities. Trauma care systems development. Infrastructure support, including training for injury professionals. Firearm safety. Coordination among federal agencies. The authors define the field of injury and establish boundaries for the field regarding intentional injuries. This book highlights the crosscutting nature of the injury field, identifies opportunities to leverage resources and expertise of the numerous parties involved, and discusses issues regarding leadership at the federal level.

Hospital-based Injury and Violence Prevention Programs
Author: Christy Adams
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031203577
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 146
Book Description
This book offers the first comprehensive insight into hospital-based injury and violence prevention programs and describes a public health approach for the integration of population-based injury prevention into trauma centers. This book meets the need for a public health informed approach, as a majority of hospital-based injury and violence prevention programs are positioned within hospital systems driven by patient-centered, acute care models. Significant variability in administration, staffing and reimbursement structures across trauma centers has historically hindered standardization of injury prevention program structure and the role of the injury prevention professional. Topics in the book include the history and development of hospital-based programs, the need and process for developing data-driven and evidence-based injury prevention interventions, building trauma center capacity for outreach through partnerships, developing prevention efforts using trauma-informed care approach, community based research and program evaluation, and the role of advocacy in injury and violence prevention. The multidisciplinary team of authors offers a collaborative approach to the implementation and development of Hospital-based Injury and Violence Prevention Programs which will serve acute care nurses, trauma program managers, hospital administrators, trauma surgeons, hospital-based injury prevention professionals, and local public health professionals.

Pages : 9
Book Description
"Over a five-year period (2000-2005), CDC's National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC), funded 28 state health departments to develop, implement, and evaluate core injury prevention and surveillance programs. At the conclusion of the five year period, states were asked to share with CDC and other states, lessons learned during the implementation of these programs. The lessons learned were submitted to CDC in the state's "Final Progress Report." NCIPC's Division of Injury Response aggregated and synthesized the lessons learned, which are presented in this brochure. They provide useful tips to help state health departments and their partners in planning and conducting injury prevention activities. The lessons learned in this brochure are sorted into eight categories: Collect, Analyze, and Report Injury Data; Implementation and Evaluation; Organizational Strength; Staffing; Funding; Establishing Partnerships, Advisory Groups, and an Injury Strategic Plan; Providing Technical Support and Training; and Affect of Advocacy, Education, and Program Visibility on Public Policy."
