According to @parachutecanada, injuries cost the Canadian economy $29.4 billion a year. The cost of pain to individuals, families and communities is immeasurable. As home to Canada’s largest trauma centre, Sunnybrook recognizes National Injury Prevention Day #ParachuteNIPD
We develop policy with best intentions, but we make assumptions about how people will interact with the protocol, then find ourselves struggling with the “myth of compliance”. We did good work to uncover key barriers/facilitators. Way to go team!!
We're happy to be part of this delightful team working to understand the barriers/facilitators of "report and remove" in sport concussion spaces. It's not enough to create policy, we need to understand how people engage with it as well. https://t.co/p1HBrjHiMY

National Injury Prevention Day is a good day to remind everyone that prevention remains an un(der)funded yet critical part of trauma care across the world. Imagine cancer, diabetes or heart disease without prevention. The disease of injury is no different. #parachuteNIPD
