What we do:
Here are some tips for a safe and enjoyable swimming pool season:
* Never leave a child unattended in the water or pool area for any
reason.
* Always keep your eyes on the child or children. Designate a child
watcher, whether you or someone else, when you attend a party or
have friends or family over.
* Talk with baby-sitters about pool safety, supervision, and drowning
prevention.
* Don't be distracted by doorbells, phone calls, chores, or
conversations. If you must leave the pool area, take the child with
you, making sure the pool gate latches securely when it closes.
* Unsupervised activity by non-swimmers can become dangerous.
Don't be afraid to ask if your guests can swim. If they can't, make
sure a swimmer is present at all times.
* Don't swim alone or allow others to swim alone; make sure there's
somebody nearby who can answer a distress call.
* Don't allow anyone who has been drinking alcohol to use the pool.
* Don't rely on swimming lessons or "floaties" to protect your
children in the water.
* Keep children away from pool filters, as the suction force may
injure them or prevent them from surfacing.
* Check the pool area regularly for glasses, bottles, toys, or other
potential accident hazards.
* Post rules such as "No running", "No pushing", "No dunking", and
"Never swim alone". Enforce the rules.
* Keep CD players, radios, and other electrical devices away from
pools or nearby wet surfaces. For safety with the use of electrical
appliances, radios, TV's, etc., talk to your pool dealer about a
ground fault interrupter. The interrupter will avoid potential danger
by shutting off power if a sudden power surge occurs at poolside.
* Treat diving boards with respect. Never dive into an above-ground
pool and check the water depth before plunging into an in-ground
pool. Private pools don't require depth markings. It's a good idea,
anyway, to prevent someone from diving into water too shallow for
complete safety. Also keep clear of the area near a diving board.
* Stay out of the pool during rain storms or during thunder or
lightning. The Red Cross and other safety organizations recommend
moving to indoor shelters for the duration of a thunderstorm.
* Don't swim if you're tired or just finished eating.
* Encourage your neighbors to follow pool safety guidelines, including
keeping their back gates and doors locked, and their pool gates
securely closed and latched.
* Don't have a false sense of security just because you think your
pool area and home are secure. Always watch your children,
whether in the house or outside.
