Özet
Objective: Examining safety measures adopted by mothers with 0 to 6 years-old children against home accidents. Material and Methodology:The sample of this descriptive and cross-sectional survey consists of 300 mothers with children in the age group 0-6 who applied to the Child Health and Diseases Branch of Ege University Health Research and Application Centre.Survey data was collected through a questionnaire on sociodemographic characteristics and the "Scale for Describing Safety Measures Adopted by Mothers of 0-6 Years Old Children to Prevent Home Accidents".Findings: 27.7% of mothers are secondary school graduates and 64.3% have never had any training about home accidents.Of children experiencing any home accident 60% are males and 24.0% are in the age interval 2-3.According to scores of mothers in "Scale for Describing Safety Measures Adopted by Mothers of 0-6 Years Old Children to Prevent Home Accidents" there is statistically significant difference with respect to educational status (p< 0.001) and training received about home accidents p <0.04).Conclusion: Findings obtained suggest that parents' educational background and their training in home accidents are effective in reducing or preventing home accidents that children may experience.It is therefore suggested that mothers/families are given training in developmental characteristics of children at these ages, risk factors associated with home accidents, safety measures and first-aid practices.
