Hospital violence intervention programs (HVIPs) embrace a public health approach to violence prevention and are grounded in data that indicates victims of interpersonal violence are at elevated risk for reinjury and are susceptible to engaging in retaliatory violence as a “natural” response borne out of societal pressure. Moreover, HVIPs acknowledge the well-documented impact of violent trauma on one’s emotional, mental, and physical wellbeing.

Drowning is also a significant source of morbidity for children. An estimated 8700 children younger than 20 years of age visited a hospital emergency department for a drowning event, and 25% of those children were hospitalized or transferred for further care. Most victims of nonfatal drowning recover fully with no neurologic deficits, but severe long-term neurologic deficits are seen with extended submersion times, prolonged resuscitation efforts, and lack of early bystander-initiated cardiopulmonary resuscitation
