Howie, Sacks & Henry is a proud sponsor of the ThinkFirst Injury Prevention Strategy for Youth (TIPSY) Program at St. Michael's Hospital. The TIPSY program is an injury prevention program that is offered to high school students in the Greater Toronto Area. The program includes tours of the trauma resuscitation room in the Emergency Department and the Alan T. Lambert Trauma/Neurosurgical Intensive Care Unit (TNICU).
The program is taught by an inter-professional team of nurses, physicians, and representatives from Toronto Police Services, Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) and a Voice of Injury Prevention (VIP). The VIP is a trauma survivor who has sustained a brain or spinal cord injury and recounts first-hand the events leading up to his/her injury, its consequences and lasting effects.
