As Injury Prevention Champions, we need you to pass on the message of what you saw and learned during your experience to your peers.
If they don’t listen to us, they might listen to you. It takes one drop to start a ripple effect… It starts with you.
Trauma Tour
Our Trauma Centre Tour has been transformed and it is now offered as a Virtual Tour!
The goal remains the same : to open your eyes to the consequences of risky behaviour, while introducing you to health care professions along the way. The content may be disturbing to some.
We do a virtual visit of the following areas: the resuscitation bay in the emergency room where we re-enact a trauma scene, the CT scanner area, the operating floor, and the intensive care unit. Survival stories are shared and various topics are addressed, such as the important role of the blood bank, and tissue and organ donation.
Injury Prevention and Road Safety Ambassador Programs
The Injury Prevention and Road Safery Ambassador Program requires you to share your experience with others in the form of a presentation.
The Injury Prevention and Road Safety Ambassador Program requires you to share your trauma centre visit experience with your peers and teach them a few road safety tips.
Our Champions in Action
Our champions are not just spokespeople for the cause, they also get to truly understand what goes on after a trauma happens.
“When you’re young, you take being healthy for granted. You don’t realize what it’s like to fight every day just to keep your body in shape. This is whas me. While all my friends were going to university, getting married and having children, my life was on pause : I was just struggling to get better. I don’t wish this upon anyone!”
“I was riding my bike, the usual. Except that the car in front of me suddenly decided to turn left. I slammed the brakes but it was too late. I got hit. I broke my jaw and 12 teeth. My stay at the hospital really made me realize just how fragile life is.”
