 Pool Safety

 

Pool Safety Tips
  • Swimming pools are the most common site for a drowning to occur for children ages 1 to 4.
  • Empty all tubs, buckets, containers, and inflatable/portable wading pools immediately after use.
  • Never leave your child unattended around water. Babies can drown in as little as one inch of water.
  • Make sure backyard pools have four-sided fencing and a self-closing, self-latching gate.
  • Take the time to learn CPR and to educate your kids about swimming safety.
