education
Learning how to spot non-swimmers and distressed swimmers helps prevent drowning fatalities.
There are many factors that can lead to a drowning situation. Educating yourself about these factors can help prevent a tragedy from occurring.
Supervision
If you don’t see it, nothing else matters. Supervision is a key component of drowning prevention.
Physical Barriers Expectation Communication Training
Studies show two primary reasons children drown in pools: lack of supervision and lack of appropriate physical barriers.
Look, know, and understand what to expect from the aquatic environment; it can help you save a life.
Do your part to communicate the dangers associated with water. Failure to communicate dangers can result in dire consequences.
Learning what to do before an emergency happens can help you save a life.
The Association of Aquatic Professionals wants you to R.E.S.P.E.C.T. the water. Help us protect our greatest assets.
