Thanksgiving Is About Gratitude—and Safety
As we gather with family and friends this holiday season, let’s not forget that safety matters everywhere—not just on the road, but in our homes and communities.
Trauma doesn’t take holidays off. Every year, preventable injuries send thousands to trauma centers during Thanksgiving. The good news? Many of these incidents can be avoided with a little planning:
✅ Drive smart—avoid distractions and never drive impaired.
✅ Kitchen safety—keep an eye on hot surfaces and sharp tools.
✅ Fall prevention—clear walkways and watch for trip hazards.
At PTSF, we’re thankful for the dedicated teams in accredited trauma centers who stand ready 24/7. But the best outcome is preventing trauma before it happens.
Wishing you a safe, healthy, and happy Thanksgiving! 🦃
