The "Keeping Children Safe" DVD is a comprehensive injury prevention tool designed to help educate parents about the most frequent causes of injury to children age 0-5 years and prevention strategies. The DVD consists of 26 "vignettes" which demonstrate a "wrong" and "right" way to protect a child from injury.

The causes of injury that are demonstrated in the DVD, as well as the
appropriate educational messages associated with each cause were
developed as a result of feedback from local multidisciplinary injury
prevention experts. Additionally, the DVD was reviewed by focus groups of parents of children age 0 to 5 years to test the understanding of the scenarios, the clarity of the educational messages, and the overall "likeability" of the product. Parents representing the diversity of cultures in Orange County were represented in the focus groups.

DVD OPTIONS: Placing the DVD in your player will automatically play a 20-second overview of the Injury Prevention Program’s Keeping Children Safe Program. After the overview, the MAIN MENU SCREEN TITLED: “DANGER WHERE CHILDREN LIVE AND PLAY” will load. From the MAIN MENU you can select (7) different areas of our COMMUNITY. Selecting the HOME or VEHICLE options will load SUB-MENUS with up to four different Child Safety video clips within that category. Selecting any of the other COMMUNITY sections will play a video segment that will teach you how to implement the necessary safety steps for that part of your home or community. To view the full-length video (English, Spanish or Vietnamese language options) in its entirety, select the PLAY ALL option in the lower left corner of the MAIN MENU. DVD and VHS are also available in Spanish and Vietnamese.
