The childs developmental stage determines the type of injury that is likely to occur. The
T L T L T L L
T T L T L T L L

childs physical health may facilitate the childs recovery from an injury but does not

impact the type of injury. Educational level is related to developmental level, but it is not
L
T L

T T L L
T L
T T L T L L
T T L T L
as important as the childs developmental level in determining the type of injury. The
L
T T L L
T T L T L T L T L L
T L
T T L T L L
T L

number of responsible adults in the home may affect the number of unintentional injuries,

T L

T L
T L

but the type of injury is related to the childs developmental stage.

living and unintentional injuries that result in chronic health problems are included in

The three key components of family-centered care are respect, collaboration, and support.
L
T L
T L
T T L T L L
T L
T L
T L

Family-centered care recognizes the family as the constant in the childs life. Taking over

T T L T L L
T T L L
T T L L
T T L T L L

total care does not include the family in the process and may increase stress instead of

T L
T T L T L L
T T L L
T T L T L L
T T L T L T L L
T T L L
T
reducing stress. The family should be enabled and empowered to work with the health
L
T L
T L
T T L T L T L T L T L T L L
T T L L
T T L T L
care system. The family is expected to be part of the decision-making process.
