The 4th of July is a fun
summer holiday, but, as experienced personal
injury attorneys, we know that it can also be very
dangerous. It is not only important to practice proper fireworks
safety, but pool safety is also of the utmost importance.
Keep Your Kids Safe
Fourth of July means fireworks, but
fireworks do not happen until it gets dark, and until then it is
usually pool party and barbecue time. As fun as it is to splash
around in the pool before seeing a fireworks show, it is very
important to remember how to “Pool
Safely,” as the U.S. Consumer Product Safety
Commission (CPSC) campaign puts it. Drowning accidents are a reality
and can ruin your summer fun if you don’t follow these guidelines
for a safe pool experience:
- Keep the pool area clean;
- Always supervise children around the pool area;
- Make sure your pool does not include any recalled equipment;
- If you are going to someone else’s house, make sure they’ve taken the necessary safety precautions;
- If the party moves inside, make sure children cannot go outside on their own; and
- Establish rules for your children regarding proper pool behavior.
