NPs working with the pediatric population can have a profound impact on safety and health through promoting bicycle helmet use to both the child and accompanying parent during children's primary care visits. NPs can also become involved beyond the institution and act as role models for children, form coalitions, and serve as community advocates for new or stronger helmet legislation and enforcement of bicycle helmet laws.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
