Why is pool safety important?

Drownings are much quieter than people realize, often without any splashing, and they can happen in an instant.

Among preventable injuries, drowning is the leading cause of death for children 1–4 years old.

For every child who dies due to drowning, another five will visit the emergency room for nonfatal submersion injuries.
