While drowning is the number one cause
of accidental death in children under
the age of five, adults comprise nearly
60% of fatal drowning related incidents.
These incidents are preventable.
Drowning can occur in as little as two
inches of water and as quickly as 20
seconds.
Adults should never swim alone; if no
one is with you, no one can save you.
A designated "Water Watcher" should
always watch children in and around the
water.

DYLT WATER SAFE
Adults should swim at their ability level.
Swimming while impaired due to alcohol,
prescription medications or exhaustion is not a
safe choice.
Be aware of the consequences when going into
a body of water unaccompanied or impaired.
What Is It?
A drain entrapment occurs when a body is held
against a pool or spa drain by the force of the
pool's suction.
Where is the Danger?
Public wading pools and in- ground pools /spas
that have flat drain grates and a single main
r drain system.
Preventing Entrapment:
- Keep loose items such as long hair, clothing
or jewelry from dangling when swimming in
a pool or sitting in a spa.
- Confirm that pools and spas have complaint
drain covers.
- Install a Safety Vacuum Release System or
other automatic shut -off system.
- Mark the location of the electrical cut -off
switch for the pool or spa pump.
If Someone is Entrapped:
- Turn off the pump immediately.
- Insert fingers or a small object between the
drain and the person's body to break the seal
and then roll them off until they're free.
DROWNING IS PREVENTABLE.
