🚨💥 WE’RE HIRING – COME PREVENT TRAUMA BEFORE IT HAPPENS! 💥🚨

Our team is looking for a Pediatric Injury Prevention Program Coordinator and Nurse to help keep kids safe where they live, learn, and play. This role is all about turning trauma data into action, bringing safety education into the community, and making a real impact before injuries reach our trauma bay.

If you’re a nurse who loves education, prevention, outreach, and using data to drive meaningful change, this is your chance to work upstream and be part of trauma care beyond the hospital walls.

Let’s make prevention just as powerful as treatment!

🌡️ Avoid Overheating During Sleep
A good rule of thumb: your baby should be dressed in about the same amount of clothing as you are comfortable wearing.
✅ No hats or gloves while sleeping—they can increase the risk of overheating and suffocation.
✅ Use a wearable blanket instead of loose blankets for warmth.
✅ Keep the room at a comfortable temperature (around 68–72°F).
