- A lack of or insufficient supervision – Children should be closely supervised anytime they are near the water. Supervision is one of the most important layers of protection.
- No pool or door alarms. These alarms can alert you if your child exits the home unsupervised or if there is a disturbance in the water.
- Mental impairment due to drugs or alcohol – Both can affect a person’s ability to respond appropriately in the event of falling into the pool.
- Age – Young children and the elderly have a higher risk of drowning if they fall into a pool.
- Health issues – Drowning is the most common cause of unintentional injury death for those with seizure disorders. Those with conditions like autism, down syndrome or similar issues, are also at a higher risk for drowning.
- No water safety survival skills – Learning how to swim and knowing life-saving water safety survival skills are vital for pool safety.
