They will also be provided tools for dealing with a crying infant and ways to share information with parents to prevent abuse from occurring.
Training objectives are to explain the statistics of abusive head trauma; to describe and explain abusive head trauma and its associated injuries; to discuss risk factors and prevention, and to describe the outcomes for victims.
