ADHD & Safety

ADHD & Safety

A child with ADHD might struggle with understanding information and deciding about risks, or they could act quickly and be more likely to get hurt.

It is important to be mindful of their safety around:

  • Traffic
  • Swimming pools, rivers and lakes
  • Tools such as lawn mowers
  • Medicines, cleaning supplies or poisonous chemicals

One of the most effective ways to reduce risk is to make changes to the environment e.g. keeping certain things locked away or out of reach, or having someone accompany you if going somewhere that may have additional risks.
