HEALTH CARE      

DOCTORS, NURSES AND OTHER HC WORKERS NEVER GET HURT ... RIGHT?
 
OF COURSE THEY DON'T!

THEY NEED TO STAY HEALTHY AND LOOK AFTER THE REST OF US!

IF YOU'RE IN THE HEALTH CARE BUSINESS YOU KNOW HOW FAR FROM THE TRUTH THAT STATEMENT REALLY IS YET PEOPLE ON THE OUTSIDE, AS WELL AS THOSE WHO ARE CONSIDERING MAKING HC
A CAREER, SEE DOCTORS, NURSES, EMTs AND OTHERS AS INDESTRUCTABLE HUMAN BEINGS

IN FACT OUR RESEARCHERS FELT THE SAME WAY, AT LEAST UNTIL THEY BEGAN RECORDING
THE NUMBER OF INJURIES ATTRIBUTABLE TO HEALTH CARE WORK, AND HOW THOSE
INJURIES AFFECT THE VERY PEOPLE OTHERS DEPEND ON FOR THEIR WELLBEING

SO HOW CAN WE REDUCE THOSE INJURY NUMBERS?

AWARENESS TRAINING OF COURSE, AND NOT JUST DURING SAFETY MEETINGS OR SEMINARS BUT WHEREVER AND WHENEVER POSSIBLE. WHEN WORKERS ARE APPRAISED OF THE DANGERS 
THEY MAY FACE ON THE JOB THE MORE LIKELY THEY WILL ABLE TO AVOID THEM, AND IF
THAT TRAINING CAN CONTINUE WHEN THEY ARE OFF WORK SO MUCH THE BETTER

THAT'S WHERE SMS's HEALTH CARE PLAYING CARDS COME IN!

OUR DECK WILL BE AN INTRIGUING AND FUNCTIONAL ADDITION TO ANY HC WORKER'S TRAINING PROGRAM, KEEPING THE SIGNIFIGANCE OF PERSONAL SAFETY AND AWARENESS FRONT AND
