Water Safety

Be Prepared

• Learn how to swim.

• Have rescue equipment by the pool.

• Take a class to learn CPR.  Contact the Sun Lakes Fire Dept. to enroll

   in a class at (480) 895-9343w.homesafetycouncil.org

• Have a cordless phone in the pool area.

• Call 9-1-1 in the event of an emergency.

Protect Young Children

• A swimming pool should have a fence that goes all the way around it.

• The fence should have a gate that closes by itself.

• Children who cannot swim, should wear a life jacket.

• Adults should keep their eyes on children every second they are near water.

• Stay awake and sober when watching children in or near water.

• Only adults can safely take care of children in or near water.

• Don’t ask children to baby-sit younger children around water.

• Store large buckets turned over, so water cannot collect inside them.

• Put away pool cleaning equipment after use.

• Wipe up spills as soon as they happen.

• Keep the area around the pool clean. Pick up toys and other things that you can

  trip over.
