With summer season approaching here are some tips on pool safety issued by KCSO:

• Designate adults to watch children when having a swimming party.

• Never leave children alone or unattended near a swimming pool, even for a second.

• When supervising a child who is swimming, adults need to always maintain “touch supervision swimming” – meaning the adult can reach out and touch or assist that child at any moment if needed.

• When supervising a child who is swimming, an adult should never be distracted or engaged in any other activity.
