When diving, make your
dives simple, keeping your head up and your arms extended
over your head.
Never push or throw anyone
into the water.
Don't swim alone. Use the
buddy system.
Take a water safety and CPR
course so you can take action if there ever is an
emergency.
If a diving or swimming
accident occurs and the diver shows no sign of movement,
Dr. Apple says gently take the victim out of the water
face up. Do not attempt a rescue beyond your swimming
capabilities. once the victim is on level ground,
immediately call 911 and begin CPR if needed.
"Just by taking a few
minutes to judge your actions around water, you can
prevent a day at the pool from resulting in a
life-altering spinal cord injury," said Dr. Apple.
