It's National Poison Prevention Week



(Undated) -- Americans are reminded about the dangers of hazardous household chemicals during National Poison Prevention Week. The week is focused on educating parents about the dangers of medicines, cleansers, even poisonous plants around the house. Safety groups say one-point-two-million accidental poisonings are reported in the U.S. each year. An estimated 90 percent of the emergencies occur at home.
