The submission was selected from almost 100 entries from 23 countries and the award was presented at the Safety World Conference in New Zealand.<\/p>\n<p>The Home Safety Interactive Guide is an engaging virtual house on the Raising Children Network website in which parents can explore safety issues around the home. As users identify each potential safety risk, they learn why it can be an issue, and have the opportunity to watch a short video about that particular risk and how they might reduce the risk in their home. They can choose to view safety issues for one, several or all age groups, allowing them to customise their experience and access information that is relevant to them. At the end of the module, parents and carers can print out a checklist of actions they need to complete in their own house, which is based on the RCH Safety Centre\u2019s Home Safety Checklist and expert-reviewed content on the Raising Children Network website.<\/p>\n<p>The tool is focused on creating a safe environment whilst encouraging learning and development.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"The Raising Children Network\" href=\"http:\/\/raisingchildren.net.au\/home_safety\/home_safety.html\" target=\"_blank\">Click here<\/a> to view the Home Safety Interactive Guide on the Raising Children Network website.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Royal Children\u2019s Hospital (RCH) Safety Centre have collaborated with The Raising Children Network to develop an international award-winning Home Safety Interactive Guide for parents and carers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":41,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2317","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-in-the-news"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.rch.org.au\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2317","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.rch.org.au\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.rch.org.au\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.rch.org.au\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/41"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.rch.org.au\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2317"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.rch.org.au\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2317\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4930,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.rch.org.au\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2317\/revisions\/4930"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.rch.org.au\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2317"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.rch.org.au\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2317"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.rch.org.au\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2317"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
