[But your achievements] would not have been possiblewithout the brilliant and committed leadership of Brigadier-General Cochrane.“Dave, you brought a wealth of experience to your three-year command of 2Canadian Air Division—ranging fromyour challenging operational deployments within the air mobility communityto your compassionate leadership at 8Wing Trenton during an extremely challenging time.“Your career has been one of impact andsuccess.

Since thedevelopment of childproof caps the number of childdeaths from common over-the-counter drugs hasdecreased significantly.Develop your own safe habits at home. Never takeany sort of pills or medicine in front of children andnever refer to medicine as candy. When there arealternatives, do not buy tablets that look like candy. Store all your medicines in a locked cabinetyour children cannot reach or open. If you have anyold or unused pills or medicine, dispose of them immediately by checking you’re your local pharmacy. Make sure all potential poisons such as detergents, cleaners, shampoos and after shaves arestored in high areas where children cannot reachthem. When you are using such products, never letthem out of your sight. It only takes a second for atoddler to pick up a bottle of liquid cleaner to try todrink it. If you suspect a child has ingested a potentiallypoisonous product, remain calm. Call the PoisonControl Centre or your local hospital immediately.Bring the container and/or label with you to thephone and be prepared to answer questions aboutthe product, the amount ingested, the time the incident took place, as well as any additional symptoms or circumstances surrounding the incident. Be ready to answer questions about the child'spersonal history including name, age and weight. Always keep a bottle of Syrup of Ipecac onhand. This syrup induces vomiting. But use it onlyon the advice of the Poison Control Centre, as vomiting is the treatment for only certain types of poisons. Medicine can be life saving but it can be fatal iftaken by the wrong person. Keep medicine out ofreach of your children and grandchildren.It is imperative all adults use the same care as parents of small children when storing medications andother potentially poisonous products.ARTICLES AND PHOTOSThe Contact produces news and information about 8 Wing/CFB Trenton athome and around the world.
