Beach Safety
Drowning — not what most people expect.
Drowning is almost always a deceptively quiet event. The waving, splashing, and yelling that television prepares us to look for is rarely seen in real life. In 10 percent of drownings, adults are nearby but have no idea the victim is dying. Here’s what to look for: Drowning Doesn’t Look Like Drowning.
• Protect exposed skin – apply minimum SPF 15 to all exposed skin 30 minutes before heading to the beach; reapply often. Sunscreen is available at the lifeguard shack if needed.
• Supervise your children – Even strong youth swimmers need constant supervision at the beach. Younger kids should wear appropriate floatation devices. Understand that floatation devices aren’t a substitute for supervision. Consider staying in the water with your children while they’re swimming and wading.
• Stay hydrated throughout the day – Bring a cooler with plenty of water, juice boxes and popsicles. Know the basic signs of heat stroke nausea, irregular breathing, confusion and headache. Set up a beach umbrella or take a break from the sun under the beach shelter.
