More Young Children Drown in Florida than Any Other State

  For every child who
  drowns, four more are hospitalized for near-drowning



TAMPA,
Fla.
  (May 21, 2012) – It’s something most parents think could never
happen to their  family, but every year in the United States nearly 830 children
drown. In  Florida, drowning rates for children are more than double the
national average  and are higher than any other state in the nation. In 2010,
Florida lost 74  children under the age of 4 to drowning. Hillsborough County
has the 4th highest  drowning rate in the state, following Broward, Dade and
Palm Beach counties.

 “Drowning hits every socio-economic group, every  race,” said St. Joseph’s Children’s Advocate Bevin Maynard. “Parents shouldn’t  think they because they are well educated or live in a nice house that it can’t happen to them.”
 Maynard notes that myths like these can give parents a false sense of safety, and allow kids to be "set up" for danger. Below are some common misconceptions related to drowning and tips on what you can do to  help keep your children safe around water.
Myth 1 - Drowning  is  noisy.
The truth is, drowning victims don’t  typically scream and splash when in distress - they often just slip away  in  silence. Children can drown in seconds, and most drownings happen when a child  is left unattended or during a brief lapse in supervision.
Be sure to:

  • Actively supervise when children are playing in or
      near water. 
  •  Designate a “water watcher” to maintain constant
      watch over children in the pool during gatherings.
  • Teach children to never go near or in water without
      an adult present
  • Remove floats and toys from in and around the pool when not in use. The presence of these toys may encourage children to enter the pool area or lean over the pool and potentially fall in.  
  • Keep rescue equipment, a telephone and emergency numbers poolside. 
  • Learn cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).
    “Performing CPR on drowning victims immediately – before paramedics arrive – may
      prevent brain damage and be the difference between life and death,” said
      Maynard.
Myth 2 - I don't have  a pool or live near the water, so my child is safe.
The truth is, there are water hazards in and  around every home. “Although most rownings and near-drownings occur in  residential swimming pools and in open water sites, children can drown in as  little as one inch of water and are  therefore at risk of drowning in wading  pools, bathtubs, buckets, diaper pails, toilets, spas and hot tubs,” said  Maynard.

 Be sure to:

  • Never leave young children unattended in bathtubs, even for a moment.
  • Never leave a young child in the care of older children during bath time. 
  • Once bath time is over, immediately drain the tub.   
  • Keep toilet lids closed and use toilet seat locks. 
  • Keep doors to bathrooms and laundry rooms closed. 
  • Empty all buckets, containers and wading pools immediately after use. Store them upside-down and out of children’s reach.

Myth 3 – My child  is  never outside without me, so I don’t need a pool fence.
The truth is, curious children, especially  those younger than 4 years old, can easily find a way out of the home and fall  into bodies of water like pools, hot tubs and ponds. Often they are discovered  too late to save. “Many parents of
children who have drowned were shocked to  discover that their toddler found a way out of the house,” said Maynard. “In  some cases, an older sibling left a door open, in a few others, children who  were thought to still be napping were  instead discovered in the pool.”

 Be sure to:

  • Install four-sided isolation fencing, at least 5 feet high, and equipped with self-closing, self-latching gates. Fencing should  completely surround swimming pools and prevent direct access from a house or yard.  
  • Use door alarms, pool alarms and pool covers for an  extra layer of protection. However, do not rely on them to keep your kids safe; they should be used in conjunction with fencing and constant supervision.  
  • Cover and lock hot tubs when not in use.

Myth 4 - My child  can’t drown because he’s wearing arm floaties. The truth is, personal floatation devices
  aren't approved for safety and won't protect a child from drowning.

Be sure to: 

  • Never rely on air-filled or foam devices such as water wings, arm floaties, plastic rings, rafts, noodles, etc. to protect a  child. These items are toys that can easily slip off their arms or over their
      head.
  • Children should always wear a U.S. Coast  Guard-approved personal floatation device when on a boat, near open bodies of  water or when participating in water sports. 
  • Enroll children in swimming lessons taught by qualified instructors when they are ready. Even then, do not assume your child  is "drown-proof" - he or she still needs constant supervision.

2 year old in Seminole near drowning- second child in 3 days!

8/9/2011

This is the second near drowning accident in the Tampa bay area this week. A pool fence by pool guard of tampa bay would have protected this child. Thank god he will be ok.

SEMINOLE — A 2-year-old boy was rushed to All Children's Hospital
Monday night after he nearly drowned in the family pool, deputies said. 
Chantelle M. Bang, 21, pulled her son, Noah, from the pool around 8 p.m. and  administered CPR until paramedics arrived, deputies said. 
Noah Bang was in stable condition and expected to be released from the
hospital early Tuesday.
 According to deputies, the child was in a back room of the 10875 131st Street  N home, playing with his mother and uncle when Chantelle Bang left the room for  five minutes. When she returned, neither her son nor his uncle were in the room,  deputies said. 
She found Noah floating in the backyard pool, which has no safety fence
around it, deputies said. 
It is believed Noah exited the house through the garage and made his way to
the pool before his mother found him. 
The investigation is ongoing.
