There’s nothing like a dip in the pool on a hot day—but a pool can also be a dangerous place, what the law calls an “attractive nuisance.” According to national statistics, more than 7,000 people drown every year, approximately 80% of them in private swimming pools. Even when the accident isn’t fatal, it can still be tragic—5000 children are hospitalized every year for near-drowning events. There are steps you can take to minimize the risk of injury or death in your pool. Remember these steps to help prevent a pool tragedy.
