bicycle helmets head injuries image
John Locke
I live in Canada Ontario Toronto. Is it illegal to ride my bike without a helmet on the road, I'm just wondering since I'll be going to high school and riding my bike to there.
Answer
I'll tell you, being struck by a car when I was 15 and sustaining a very serious head injury(In a coma for six months!), everyone regardless of age should be required to wear a helmet when riding a bicycle!
Not sure if it's illegal where you live though. Call your local police and ask them. They know the laws.

How should the nurse respond to the client/patient?
Q. Sharon is a 32-year-old horse trainer. While training a young horse, she was thrown off of the horse and suffered a mild head injury. The nurse inquires about the use of a helmet. Sharon replies, "This is the first time I have ever had a head injury from a horse. I don't think I need a helmet." Based on your understanding of the skull, how should the nurse respond to the client?
Answer
I am a nurse although I work in a different field of nursing to A&E all nurses work to the nursing ethics. This means that no matter who or what a person has done everyone recieves the same treatment and care. A medical proffesional has to gather as much information about a patient before any treatment is given. If in this case the person wishes not to wear a helmet on what sounds like private land (the young horse was in training) she does not have to wear a helmet. It is however a nurses duty of care that medical staff would offer the advice to wear a helmet.
Just for the record. I was involved in a collision with a van while I was riding a bicycle two days ago, I was not wearing a helmet, I was lucky and only suffered a broken nose and although I have no breakages to my body the whole of my right side is bruised and very painfull, I could have easily banged my head if I hit another part of the car or been thrown over the car causing me to land on my head. When I replace my smashed up bike will buy a helmet no matter how much of a dickhead I might look like wearing it. I think the horse rider should think about doing the same.
