Lead Poisoning
One of the most common environment injuries to affect children is lead poisoning. Lead poisoning can bring with it a long term health consequence for a child.
Lead is found in paint, especially in older buildings, and unless removed, can be poisonous to generations of children. Even small amounts of lead in a child is dangerous. Though lead poisoning has declined over the years because of its eradication in paint and other consumer products, it is still found in a great number of preschool-aged children. The only way to prevent lead poisoning is to remove the source it is found in.
