Home Pool Safety Tips
There are some tips to consider when you enjoy family time with your kids at a home pool, such as adult supervision at all times, and make sure you do not have pool toys covering the surface of the pool. Those pool toys are not safety devices, the safest thing you can do for a child is putting a lifejacket on.
Dr. Fernando Mendoza, Medical Director of the Emergency Department at Baptist Children's Hospital, points out it is important that the person who is watching the pool know how to swim, he or she has to have rescue skills in case of an event.
