Health
promotion, primary care, comprehensive care for complex, chronic
medical problems, and community outreach underlie the strengths
of the center. Community outreach extends to school-based health
centers and the many community schools actively involved in the
Harlem Injury Prevention Program. P.S. 92, featured in this video,
is one of five Safety City schools in New York City where children
learn traffic safety training in the third grade. A simulated
street environment and a training room created in the traffic
safety theme are key to providing children with hands on experience
in the concepts of injury prevention.
This program and others
in the PRC work to reduce child morbidity and mortality and to
support healthy children and families.
This
3 minute excerpt is part of the video from the “foundation
session” of the Health module in the Pediatrics
in Practice health promotion curriculum. |
