This episode of Pediacast is brought to you by trainees for child injury prevention, the Central Ohio Poison Center, and Nationwide Children's Hospital.

Music Hello, everyone and welcome once again to PDACast.

We are a pediatric podcast for moms and dads.

This is Dr. Mike coming to you from the campus of Nationwide Children's Hospital.

We're in Columbus, Ohio.

It's episode 591. We're calling this one Safe Medicine Storage.

I want to welcome all of you to the program.

We are so happy to have you with us.

As you know, medications are in nearly every home, and while they do help us feel better,

they can also pose a serious threat to kids when they are not stored safely.

Today we are joined by two pediatric residents from the Trainees for Injury Prevention Program,

along with a poison control expert to explore practical steps every family can take to prevent accidental ingestions.

We'll cover safe storage strategies, common myths, what poison control

can do for you, and the actions you can take right now to keep your children safe.

Of course, in our usual Pediacast fashion, we do have a terrific panel of guests joining us in

the studio. Dr. Nicole Clayton and Dr. Ann Elizabeth Mason are both pediatric residents, and Dr. Natalie

Rhine is director of the Central Ohio Poison Center at Nationwide Children's. Before we get to

them, I do want to remind you the information presented in every episode of our program is

for general educational purposes only. We do not diagnose medical conditions or formulate

treatment plans for specific individuals.

If you're concerned about your child's health, be sure to call your health care provider.
