Do you know where you’re supposed to store your household medicines? You probably know that you should be keeping them up and away and out of sight and reach of young children. But now ask yourself – is that what you’re actually doing?
Safe Kids surveyed 2,000 parents across the country this winter to better understand their knowledge, attitudes and behaviors when it comes to the safe storage of medicine – and the answers were surprising. While 9 in 10 parents agree it’s important to store all medicine up high and out of reach after every use, nearly 7 in 10 report that they aren’t actually doing so.
