Best Practices in Injury Prevention
In Minnesota and nationwide, we have developed skills in collecting and analyzing data about injury. We know a great deal about:
- How serious a problem injuries are,
- Who is affected,
- What causes injuries,
- Where and how they occur,
- How they are treated, and
- How much they cost to individuals and society.
The following best practices include information on the magnitude of the problem, strategies
that have proven successful in achieving injury prevention objectives, and resources
for further information.
