Children Drown Without a Sound

At pools, spas & other recreational waters:

  • Teach children basic water safety skills.
  • Avoid entrapment by keeping children away from pool drains, pipes, and other openings.
  • If a child is missing, look for them in the pool or spa first, including neighbors’ pools or spas.

 
If you have a pool:

  • Install a four foot fence around the perimeter of the pool and spa, including portable pools.
  • Maintain pool and spa covers in good worker order.
  • Have life saving equipment such as life rings, floats or a reaching pole available and easily accessible.

 
At home:

  • Always keep a young child within arm’s reach in a bathtub. If you must leave, take the child with you.
  • Don’t leave a baby or young child in a bathtub under the care of another young child.
  • Never leave a bucket or basin containing even a small amount of liquid unattended. Always empty and store buckets where young children cannot reach them.

STOP – Do Not Swim Without Supervision
Make sure to have adult supervision. Stop if you are alone!

 
 

  • Children are always within eyesight and reach
  • The “Water Watcher” scans the water at all times, without engaging in conversations, phone calls, reading, texting, or any other distracting activity.
  • Never leave children in or around a body of water unattended.
  • Do not rely on flotation devices as a method for supervision.

CAUTION – Use Multiple Barriers Around Water
Use caution around any body of water, know your limitations!

 
 

  • Install and maintain proper fencing around pool and spa.
  • Use safety covers, gate alarms, door alarms, and motion-detection devices.
  • All gates are self-closing, self-latching, and open away from the pool.
  • For non-swimmers, always wear US Coast Guard approved life vests, make sure vests fit sungly on body.
