CPR, or cardiopulmonary resuscitation, can help save a life during cardiac arrest, when the heart stops beating or beats too ineffectively to circulate blood to the brain and other vital organs. However, even after training, remembering the CPR steps and administering them correctly can be a challenge.

We encourage everyone to keep water safety in mind and reduce child drowning.
We want everyone to follow five simple steps to stay safer this summer • Designate a water watcher every single time children in my care are in or near the water. • Make sure kids know how to swim. • Learn CPR. • If there is a pool, always remove portable pool ladders when they are not in use. • Ensure all permanent pools have a proper fence and gate and safer drain covers.
Learn more about rip currents. Rip currents are particularly dangerous because they are difficult to identify, and the worst events can occur during otherwise good weather when your guard might be let down. They also tend to be strongest during low tide. Don't underestimate the power of water; even rivers and lakes can have undertows. Significant rip currents are more likely to occur with a strong onshore wind.
Learn how to break the grip of the rip.
Keep children safe around water.

25 July is World Drowning Prevention Day World Drowning Prevention Day, declared through the April 2021 UN General Assembly Resolution A/RES/75/273 “Global drowning prevention”, is held annually on 25 July. This global advocacy event serves as an opportunity to highlight the tragic and profound impact of drowning on families and communities and offer life-saving solutions to prevent it. An estimated 236,000 people drown every year, and drowning is among the ten leading causes of death for children aged 5-14 years. More than 90% of drowning deaths occur in rivers, lakes, wells, domestic water storage vessels, and swimming pools in low- and middle-income countries, with children and adolescents in rural areas disproportionately affected.
Strategize your safety today! Be proactive, prepared, and protected!
