Highlighting Injury Prevention In Ontario It’s Worth the Investment

Why is injury prevention important? Injuries claim the lives of 15,866 Canadians each year 5,785 lives lost each year in Ontario alone Many injuries are preventable In 2011, there would have been 200,000 fewer injuries due to leisure, recreation or other non-work related activities in Ontario

Prevention is cost effective 1 Dollar spent on: Produces savings of; Bicycle helmets $ 29 Child safety seats $ 32 Road safety improvements $ 3 Counseling by paediatricians $ 10 Poison control services $ 7

Annual cost of injury in Ontario $ 8.8 billion total costs (direct and indirect) $ 667 dollars per capita 1 injury-related emergency room visit for 10 people (1.4 million visits total) Over 20,000 permanent total and partial disabilities

Annual cost of injury in Ontario 5,785 total injury deaths Leading causes of death: falls, suicide/self- harm, transport incidents Nearly 10% of all deaths in the province Injury deaths rank 3rd after cancer and heart disease

Evidence-informed practices Reducing injuries by just 20% would save over $ 1.7 billion and more than 1,100 lives in one year There are several promising practices: Community Against Preventable Injuries Kids Need a Boost November as Fall Prevention Month Distracted driving campaigns SafeTALK

Recommendations Use the document to guide your work www.oninjuryresources.ca/highlighting Focus on the mechanisms of injury with the highest burden: Falls Transportation Suicide/Self-harm Look for synergies with other areas such as mental health, cancer, substance misuse, etc. to make better use of resources

What we can do Please include local statistics here
