Injuries are one of the leading causes of death in the United States and are almost always preventable. Jackson Memorial Hospital, through its Emergency Care Center, provides community-based injury prevention education for all ages.

The goal of these programs is to heighten injury awareness, provide trauma prevention education, and promote wellness and safety to all populations in our community.

These programs are free of charge, age-specific and can be given in a variety of settings such as schools, businesses, senior centers, community or faith-based groups, parks’ programs, etc.

We regularly educate students and teachers at schools, address PTAs and attend private businesses’ employee health days at locations such as:

• American Airlines/Department of Homeland Security
• Costco
• Carnival Cruise Line
• City of Miami Police
• Miami-Dade County

If your company, organization or school is interested in having us present one or more of these free programs, please contact us at least 30 days ahead of time to facilitate scheduling.
