70% of fatal child drownings happen during non-swim time. Fence pools and spas, & make sure that doors and windows that lead out to them have alarms or keyless latches out of kids' reach. If a child is missing, check the water first! #nrhws365

Portable pools may not always be top of mind when considering #watersafety, but they account for 4% of all pool drownings. #Safetytip: always put portable pools away after use. Review and download our tip card: bit.ly/2FkdqzK

“Reach and throw – don’t go!” : Never try to save anyone by jumping in yourself; then two people are at risk. Throw them something that floats, or grab a pole that reaches them. Yell yell YELL for help and call 911. #watersafety #poolsafety #layersofprotection

Drowning is drowning, there is only one "type". The rest are misnomers that only distract you from what is really important: enforce water safety practices and prevent drowning accidents from happening to those you love.
