In response to reports of more than 210 child drowning and near drowning accidents in pools and spas just since Memorial Day Weekend, the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and its partners are launching a new Pool Safely campaign.
Parents can watch the Pool Safely educational videos on YouTube and learn the seven Pool Safely steps, including:
- Supervision
- Fencing
- Pool and Spa Covers
- Alarms
- Safety Drain Covers
- Swimming Lessons
- Learning CPR
Parents and other caregivers should be sure to watch all of the Pool Safely videos if there is any chance that their kids will be in or around the water this summer, whether it is at home, a hotel, or when visiting friends or family.
