GENERAL AQUATIC SAFETY
Water recreation is both fun and therapeutic. However, it involves inherent risks
of injury and death. To reduce your risk of injury, read and follow all product,
package and package insert warnings and instructions. Remember, however, that
product warnings, instructions and safety guidelines cover some common risks
of water recreation, but do not cover all risks and dangers.
For additional safeguards, also familiarize yourself with the following general
guidelines as well as guidelines provided by nationally recognized Safety
Organizations:
• Demand constant supervision. A competent adult should be appointed as a “lifeguard”
or water watcher, especially when children are in and around the pool.
• Learn to swim.
• Take the time to learn CPR and first aid.
• Instruct anyone who is supervising pool users about potential pool hazards and about
the use of protective devices such as locked doors, barriers, etc.
• Instruct all pool users, including children what to do in case of an emergency.
• Always use common sense and good judgement when enjoying any water activity.
• Supervise, supervise, supervise.
