The holidays bring so much joy, fun and of course travel! During all the hustle and bustle, accidents and injury are bound to happen. Whether it is during shopping, driving or outdoor fun you never know when an accident may occur. No one wants their holidays to be ruined by injury. Here are a few tips that can help you protect yourself from injury during the holidays.
PREPARE FOR HOLIDAY ACTIVITIES: Sledding, skiing and other outdoor fun are often a part of the holiday season. Being prepared with the proper safety gear, receiving proper instruction and choosing a safe location are all imperative to your safety.
DRIVE DURING WAKING HOURS: Tired drivers are dangerous drivers. Even though it can be tempting to leave in the middle of the night and drive straight through to your destination to avoid traffic, it may not be the best decision. You need to be alert and focused when you are driving. Be sure you are well rested before you hit the road.
BE CAREFUL WITH YOUR DECORATIONS: Outdoor decorations, holiday light and Christmas trees are often part of the holiday festivities, but be safe with them. When using ladders, be sure it is sturdy and have a spotter. Be sure your tree is stable so that is doesn't fall over and keep it watered to prevent fires. Make sure any decorations inside or outside the home are not obstructing walkways. They should also be very secure as not to easy fall or shift, which could lead to injury.
