Aim: How can an individual identify potential risks that could lead to unintentional injury?

Notes: reckless vs. cautious
Cautious: Cautious risks involve being aware of a risk and taking action to prevent dangerous outcomes. People who take cautious risks think through the situation first. They recognize risk, determine steps to reduce the risk, develop a safety plan, rely on the support of others, use available resources, and stay alert.
Reckless risks are more likely to result in injury, damage to property or death. People who take reckless risks don’t stop to think through the situation. They act impulsively, aren’t aware of the risk, don’t plan ahead, combine several risky behaviors, aren’t concerned about the impact their actions may have on others, don’t use available resources to protect themselves
