Description

Pill Protect QuickFire Challenge: Designing for Medication Safety

Keeping kids safe at home is more important than ever – including safely storing medicines. Especially, as many families are living a new normal with children spending more time at home due to the pandemic.

Every hour in the United States, 5 children under age 6 are rushed to emergency departments for medication poisonings, many due to unsafe storage practices. There has been a 142% increase in prescribed medications over the past two decades. At the same time, an aging population and drastic increase in three-generation households, kids living with their parents and grandparents, are likely contributing to approximately 200,000 children visiting emergency departments each year due to adverse drug events.

The challenge invites visionaries to submit ideas aiming to prevent or reduce the accidental access by children of medications in pill minders, pill organizers, or pill dispensers.
