Each year, more than 200,000 people are treated in emergency rooms for injuries received on playgrounds. Over one-third of injuries are severe internal injuries, fractures, concussions, dislocations, and amputations.
Providing a safe environment for children should be paramount in any playground discussion, and providing a safe play area also helps reduce many of the costs associated with injuries.
