abstract="The role of the children's hospital as a community center is widely recognized, yet its potential as a base of operations for injury control is seldom utilized. While hospital beds continue to be filled with many children having burns, poisonings, broken bones, and other residuals of injury, an active preventive program to counteract this toll is rarely demonstrated. Miss Hoekstra has emphasized the important trilogy of training, research, and service in childhood injury which should be carried on in pediatric centers. Recent studies have clearly indicated that even in the hospital children are in danger from falls, mismatched medications and other traumatic experience. It seems evident that children's medical institutions must assume a more significant leadership role with injury control.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
