POOL SAFETY GUIDELINES:
1.Never Swim Alone
2.Never leave your child unsupervised in or near a
swimming pool, hot tub, or any water, even for a second.
3.No glass containers around the pool.
4.Swim only in clear water and head for cover when a
storm threatens.
5.No running or horseplay.
6.Keep electrical appliances away from the pool.
7. Don’t jump in to save someone; throw something to
them for assistance.
8.Learn your local emergency numbers. 911.
9. No diving in shallow water.
10. Don’t allow barriers, such as fences or walls, to
give you a false sense of security regarding your
child’s safety. There is no substitute for supervision!
11.Keep toys, tricycles, and other children’s playthings
away from the pool, spa or water.
12. Don’t consider your children to be “drown-proof”
because you enrolled them in “waterproofing”
or swimming classes.
13. Don’t rely on “water-wings” or inflatable devices to
keep your child afloat. They are no substitute for
supervision.
14. Your pool or spa should always have well-maintained
barriers or “layers of safety.” Make sure your pool or
spa has effective barriers – (fence/wall/latched
doors/covers/alarms) – that guard against unauthorized
access.
15.Always drain standing (surface) water off the pool or
spa cover.
16.Learn how to administer lifesaving techniques to
children, including cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
17.Install a phone, or keep a cordless phone, in the
pool or spa area.
18. Know how to contact local emergency medical
services. Post the numbers in an easy-to-see place.
