Unintentional injury is the leading cause of death for children over the age of one.
Rainbow Babies & Children’s Hospital is nationally renowned for its leading-edge clinical services and compassionate, child-oriented environment of care, but our commitment to children and families does not stop at our front doors.
Because children’s safety is vital to their overall health and wellbeing, the hospital maintains an array of injury prevention programs under the umbrella of the Rainbow Injury Prevention Center.
The Center’s mission is three fold:
1) to work directly with children and families through education and outreach to decrease injury risk and improve wellbeing
2) to share creative ideas, resources and information with all members of the Greater Cleveland community interested in protecting children, and
3) to advance the body of knowledge in unintentional injury prevention research.
