  1. What Are The Reasons For Swimming Pool Accidents?

  2. Swimming pools are popular gathering places during the hot summer months. However, those meeting places can take a tragic turn in a split second. Every year, many young boys and girls are often victims of swimming pool accidents. Most of those accidents involve a minor injury to the body or the head. Here are the most common causes of swimming pool accidents in Philadelphia.

  3. Lack of Supervision Most accidents occur due to lack of supervision, especially when there are children involved. If the parents are too busy with their nap or making calls, the children may wander off and end up in an accident. At the same time, lifeguards may get distracted and not see a poor child drowning in the pool.

  4. Defective Equipment Missing or defective equipment is another reason why so many people are injured every year around swimming pools. Most injuries occur around pool ladders, which are usually not properly maintained, not allowing swimmers to get into and out of the water safely.

  5. Damaged Property Everything around the pool area can be potentially dangerous. The area surrounding the pool is usually wet and slippery. Running around the pool will most likely result in an accident. In addition, damaged tiles can create a tripping hazard. At the same time, unmarked depth changes can be misleading, causing the swimmers to unknowingly get into deep water.

  6. Exposure To The Sun and Intoxication Staying on the Sun too much could cause the one to become dehydrated. Some symptoms of dehydration include: ➢ Impaired judgment ➢ Lack of coordination ➢ Slow response If you drink alcohol, you may feel the same consequences. Remember that drinking around the pool area is not a good idea. If you can, monitor your alcohol intake and stop before it is too late.
