Firearm injuries are the leading cause of death in children in the United States. This public health issue is heartbreaking, but it’s also preventable. In this episode, we're joined by Dr. Richard Falcone, pediatric trauma surgeon and chief of staff at Cincinnati Children's, to talk about practical steps families can take to keep kids safe.  
We discuss the importance of firearm storage, different storage options and how to set clear boundaries with family or friends who may have firearms in their homes. Dr. Falcone also shares advice on how to talk to kids about firearm safety and why it's okay—and encouraged—to bring up firearm safety with your pediatrician. 
Whether you own firearms or your child may be around them in other homes, this episode offers guidance on how we can advocate for our kids and protect them from firearms.
