I need all parents, grandparents and siblings to recognize the importance of drowning.
In 2018 there were over 91 children drownings and each year it increases.
The children predominantly are males, and over 80% occur within the home in Bathtubs.
Now nation wide over 3,500 drownings happen a year but let's help prevent this together.
Most child drownings occur from unsupervised children that don't know how to swim.
Did you know how long and how deep the water has to be for a child to drown?
I'll give you a second here......
It takes only 30 seconds for a child to drown and in just 2 info of water.
Don't go thinking you can check on dinner in the other room or use the restroom for a split second because that's all it takes.
Unfortunately I've seen too many cases where the mother left the room to return to a drowning baby.
- Drowning is the 3rd leading cause of unintentional injury death worldwide, accounting for 7% of all injury-related deaths.
There are an estimated 320,000 annual drowning deaths worldwide.
Global estimates may significantly underestimate the actual public health problem related to drowning.
Children, males and individuals with increased access to water are most at risk of drowning.
