Albany Med Trauma Education and Injury Prevention

To provide the community and the Regional Trauma System with timely information on trauma education

04/29/2026

Over the past week, our Adult Injury Prevention & Outreach team educated over 700 students, between Hudson City High School and Amsterdam High School. Focusing on the real-life impact of reckless, distracted, and impaired driving among teen drivers.

With prom and graduation season approaching, we emphasized how quickly a split-second decision can lead to serious or fatal consequences, not just for drivers, but for passengers, families, and entire communities.

Our goal is simple; we want to empower teens to make safe, responsible decisions every time they get behind the wheel. One good decision can make all the difference.

As we all enjoy this wintry mess today, we strongly encourage you to take a few extra minutes to prepare yourself for walking outside. Adult falls are the #1 cause of injury nationwide, year after year. Here are some great tips to help stay on your feet:
>Have your outside surfaces treated.
>Use handrails where available.
>Walk slowly and take smaller steps-“Walk Like a Penguin.”
>Keep your hands free.
>Pay attention.
>Wear appropriate footwear.
If you can stay off the roads, please do so. Stay warm, stay on your feet and stay safe as we wrap up 2025.

Today is National Injury Prevention Day, a day we take a pause and think about how we keep our communities safe.

Across the country businesses, government offices and first response agencies are turning their building lights and electronic signs green to show their support. If your place of work can go green, we’d love to see it, comment with a photo if you can!

Albany Med Adult Injury Prevention will be working with the NYS Bureau of Occupational Health and Injury Prevention manning booths today at the Capital Plaza Concourse, near the Corning Tower. We’ll have great information to help keep you, your friends and families safe. Stop on by, say hi and show your support!

What Do You Consider Lethal?🚗💥
A gun? A knife?
How about a glance at your phone while driving?

This Fall, the Adult Trauma Program brought the Impact Teen Drivers program to Whitehall High School and Chatham High School, reaching almost 500 students with one powerful message:
Reckless and distracted driving is 100% preventable. Every choice behind the wheel matters. Every distraction could be lethal.
Let’s keep the conversation going—because saving lives starts with awareness.

Your Albany Med Injury Prevention Outreach Team was pleased to present the acclaimed Stop The Bleed program to the Herkimer County Rescue Heroes Summer Day Camp. This program is designed for Females ages 14-17 and gives them an opportunity to learn about potential careers in first response in areas such as fire, law enforcement, EMS and 911 dispatch. We were fortunate to have a special guest instructor in attendance, Firefighter/Paramedic Meg Delaney of the City of Amsterdam Fire Department, who, as a strong Female role model in Fire/EMS, was able to answer a LOT of the campers questions. We look forward to working with this great event every year and we thank Herkimer County BOCES for the invitation and continued partnership!
