N2  - Child abuse continues to be a tremendous medical and social problem in South Carolina. Hundreds of children are injured each year and some are killed. Many injuries and deaths could have been prevented with timely intervention. Unfortunately the vast resources available in the fight against child abuse are of little value if primary health providers fail to notify the appropriate agencies. Improvements in education, detection, reporting and intervention are the only effective means of reducing the morbidity and mortality associated with child abuse and helping to eradicate it from society.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
