Swimming pools are a popular source of recreation, especially in the summer months. The swimming pool can be fun, but few people are aware of the dangers associated with swimming and diving. More than 3,000 people drown in swimming pools and the number of other injuries related to swimming and diving increases every year.

Sinks, bathtubs, fish tanks, toilets, hot tubs, spas, and ponds are all places that a person could be at risk of drowning.
