Every third full week in March we recognize National Poison Prevention Week and the Washington Poison Center celebrates it as Mr. Yuk Week.

Although the next “official” week is March 14-20, 2010 we encourage you to include poison prevention messages throughout the year.

You are in a unique position to increase awareness of an often overlooked injury – poisoning. Ideally, no one should have to suffer the worry or costs associated with unintentional poisonings.

Useful all year long are the following links (feel free to tweak to fit your needs):
