About 140 Transport Deaths per year 14-2514% of the population having 33% of transport deaths

Typical Stories– Early parenting issues– CYF involvement– Problems at school - disengage – Not connected to parents– Strong influence of peer group– Escalating risk taking– Alcohol, Cannabis – Mental health issues– No one there for them– Disconnected from services
• Missed Opportunities to Intervene• Only clearly identified as information linked after death

Number of deaths
Age in yearsSource: CYMRC Data Collection; Numerator Sbstance Group determined following case review of CYMRC data
Poisoning deaths (unintentional and undetermined intent) by substance and age in children and young people aged 9 to 24 years, New Zealand 2002–2008 (n=103) (draft CYMRC data 2012)

Influencing policy and legislation· Control legal access to substances and require warning labels
Mobilizing neighborhoods and communities· Recognise abusers reduce sales and access
Changing organizational practices· Voluntary control by retailers· Warning labels on products· Offensive odours, tastes, colouring - research needed· Use alternate products and safer storage systems

Spectrum of Prevention
Fostering coalitions and networks· Lead agency nominated with the development of coalitions
Educating providers· Screen & support young people after risk taking related harm
Promoting community education· School based, retailers, parents, caregivers
Strengthening individual knowledge and skills· Strategies to build risk competence· Connecting young people to supports
Assuring access to quality health care· Identify users and connect to health services

Quite common for young people to suffer a number of injuries before death

Behaviours in Motor Vehicles
• during the previous month,– 24% driven by someone driving dangerously – 23% rode with drive who had been drinking alcohol
• 10% of 17yr olds had driven a car after more than two glasses of alcohol in 2 hrs before driving
• more than 26% of students do not always wear a seatbelt when driving or being driven in a car.
(Youth 2007)
![Page 25: The Risk Taking Years](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062302/56816834550346895ddde961/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Consequences of Risk Taking
• Injury – physical health• Antisocial behaviours
– Drugs alcohol tobacco dependency– Violence crime– Poor educational performance
• Unwanted pregnancy• Costs
– Lost potential– Injury $400,000,000 per annum direct to ACC– Crime
![Page 26: The Risk Taking Years](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062302/56816834550346895ddde961/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Risk Taking• Active voluntary behaviours associated
with high risk of injury or death• Different sorts of risk taking cluster
• Across life domains, reckless use of vehicles, natural hazards, alcohol, sex, violence, crime, drugs
– OECD uses teen births, youth smoking and drunkenness as national index of risk taking• NZ 24th out of 30 OECD countries
– Consequences can have major impact on future potential
![Page 27: The Risk Taking Years](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062302/56816834550346895ddde961/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Risk Taking -Developmental Determined• An evolutionary advantage?
– Risk seeker – hero Risk avoider – coward• Greater chance of success if resources are scarce• males competing for a mate, finding new food sources
– Strong decision making under uncertainty– Risk takers who survive may get high rewards
• Criminals, stock markets, racing car drivers• Now imbedded in youth phenotype
– a need for the stimuli risk taking creates– experiences that cross boundaries attractive to adolescents– risk taking leads to acceptance within peer group – rebellion and differentiation from adult norms
![Page 28: The Risk Taking Years](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062302/56816834550346895ddde961/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

Risk Taking• Environmentally potentiated
– Social, physical, emotional– Isolation from moderating mature influence
• Hazards increased by– Opportunities – fast cars, dangerous rivers– Alcohol– Peers– Media – you-tube, video games, violent
programs promote violence?– Disconnection – parents matter still
![Page 30: The Risk Taking Years](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062302/56816834550346895ddde961/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Alcohol• Alcohol contributes to
– 1: 3 injury deaths (15-24yr age group)
– More fatal crashes in the 15–24 age than older groups
– a greater effect on driving performance at lower levels for young people ( + peers!)
• Do not set young people up to learn to drink at same time as learning to drive– Zero tolerance for alcohol in young & novice drivers– The greatest risk period for young drivers is in the first six
months of driving solo – graduated licence

What do we know works?• Telling young people about risk• Telling young people what to do
– Explore why they might change target behaviour• HUGE international disparities suggest
substantial change is possible– Environmental, enforcement, legislation – Building Risk Competence
• Need specific youth targeted interventions across all risk taking and injury types
![Page 34: The Risk Taking Years](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062302/56816834550346895ddde961/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Building Risk Competence• learn to manage complex and hazardous
situations and avoid harm• develop emotional, social and cognitive -
resilience – improve
• perception and assessment of risks• coping with hazardous situations
• opportunities and environments– explore and develop
• physical, psychological, social skills without undue injury risk – “split the risk”
![Page 35: The Risk Taking Years](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062302/56816834550346895ddde961/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

Risk Competence Lower• Novice• Peer presence• Males• Disconnected• Alcohol • Drugs• Aimless• Mental illness• ADHD• Disability
Greater• Experience – transferability• Practiced decision maker• Perception of Risk• Values and Attitudes• Sense of control• Mentoring• Supervision• Connections• Purpose• Learn from Mistakes
![Page 37: The Risk Taking Years](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062302/56816834550346895ddde961/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Building Risk Competence– Communities should
• reduce pathways to harm with more opportunities for healthy development - without death!
• link environments of risk to support & supervision– Joined up services support holistic care– Role modelling
• separate alcohol and sport – Support parents to understand role and stay
connected
![Page 38: The Risk Taking Years](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062302/56816834550346895ddde961/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Mitigate Impact of Risky Behaviours
• Environmental modification– road designs, urban design
• Product modification – car design, air bags
• Legislation, regulation and enforcement– legal limits for alcohol, graduated licensing
• Use of safety devices – seat belts, condoms
• Community-based interventions – mentoring, youth workers, employment
Passive
![Page 39: The Risk Taking Years](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062302/56816834550346895ddde961/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Youth Specific Prevention• 15-24 yr issues lost in adult issues and
injury type specific interventions• Same factors contribute to
– Vehicle, workplace, drowning, poisoning, assault• No group with focus on youth injury
- cf SafeKids• Developmental preventive interventions • Need a common national approach
– Lead agency injury prevention 14-24 or 0-19?
![Page 40: The Risk Taking Years](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062302/56816834550346895ddde961/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
The Role of Health Care• Supporting Young People
– Connections communication – motivational interviews
– Recognise risk and intervene – ADHD repeats
– Develop care pathways – brief counselling
• Supporting Parents– Stay connected – explore why change target behaviour
– Anticipatory guidance – understand the risks
• Community Change– Youth at the centre
• environmental and attitude change
