SHAKEN BABY SYNDROME-A PREVENTABLE TRAGEDY [Children's Advocacy Center]

The issues addressed in this training include:

  • Shaken Baby Syndrome (SBS) and the signs and symptoms

  • Areas of the brain that are affected by severe shaking

  • What happens physically when a baby or small child is shaken

  • How a baby’s crying can trigger a caregiver’s shaking a baby

  • The characteristics or profile of a person likely to shake a baby

  • A plan for handling frustration, anger, and stress when a baby cries

    This curriculum introduces the Realityworks Shaken Baby Syndrome SimulatorTM, presents documented information about SBS, and provides activities and discussions designed to educate students and communities about this devastating and preventable

    injury. This curriculum uses the SBS Simulator and additional teaching aids to educate students about the physical injuries caused by shaking a baby. The curriculum presents the clinical symptoms of a severe shaking, the situations that can lead to a caregiver’s loss of control, and ways to anticipate and ease the frustration, anger, and stress that can occur when caring for a baby or young child.
