Methods	RCT
Participants	Families with children aged 10 months to 2 years born at local rural hospital
Interventions	I = home safety check + tailored education booklet + local safety equipment retail outlets identified, mail order addresses provided or equipment ordered through research team and made available at local hospital C = none of the above
Outcomes	Outcomes measured between 5 and 9 months: Possession of a cooker guard Thermostatic mixer valves in kitchen/bathroom/laundry Spring loaded safety taps in kitchen/bathroom/laundry Fitted fireguard No significant difference in any thermal injury outcomes. No figures or P values reported Lockable cabinet for storage of poisons in kitchen/bathroom/laundry ‐ Intervention group more likely to have lockable cabinets post intervention than pre intervention, P < 0.05 Possession of ipecac ‐ Intervention group more likely to have ipecac than control group, P < 0.01. Figures not reported. Roof areas child can gain access to Outside steps with no railings and non‐climbable barrier Balcony without adequate non‐climbable barrier High windows which open more than 10 cm Climbable fencing Interior steps without railings Non‐climbable barriers High chair without harness Intervention group less likely to have accessible roof areas post intervention than pre intervention (P < 0.05). No significant difference in other falls injury outcomes. Figures and P values not reported. Use of earth leakage circuit breakers Safety shuttered power points ‐ no significant difference in any electrical injury outcomes. Figures and P values not reported. Protected sharp edges ‐ Intervention group less likely to have bench tops with sharp edges, P < 0.001. Figures and P values not reported. No toys with small parts ‐ No significant difference between intervention and control groups. Figures and P values not reported Adequate pool fencing ‐ no significant difference in any drowning injury outcomes. Figures and P values not reported Use of safety glass in glass doors ‐ no significant difference. Figures and P value not reported Hazard score calculated based on a 24 item home hazard checklist ‐ Mean (SD) hazard score: I = 9.39 (2.30), C = 9.91 (2.76), P = NS
