In Boulder County, unintentional injuries are the third leading cause of death with 51.62 per 100,000 population.
Fortunately, evidence shows that with comprehensive injury prevention programs, these injuries can be significantly reduced. At Boulder Community Health, in partnership with local organizations, we are actively working to provide education and training for our community members to increase awareness of injuries and decrease the total number of trauma-related deaths.
Boulder Fire-Rescue performs free in-home safety assessments to evaluate fall risk hazards. To schedule a home safety assessment submit a request at General Community Event Request | City of Boulder and select home safety visit/smoke alarm program.
