SUMMER FUN WITHOUT THE RISKS
Top Tips for Water, Camping, and Grill Safety
As the summer activities heat up, so do the chances for unexpected injuries! Whether lounging by the pool, hitting the trails, or embarking on a road trip, keeping safety top of mind can make all the difference. So, let’s dive into some of the safety essentials you need to ensure the season is not only enjoyable but also accident-free. WATER SAFETY Accidental drownings are sadly a common occurrence, especially for young children. Whether you’re headed to the community pool, a beach, or a water park, knowing water safety basics and being a confident swimmer can ensure everyone stays safe. There are a variety of local swim classes you and your family can take so your children feel sure of their abilities. It’s also wise to learn CPR so if an emergency does happen, someone can start performing this life-saving action. Never allow children to swim in an unsupervised area, as drowning can happen in less than a minute. So, choose a pool or water source with lifeguards.
someone you trust so someone will notice if you don’t arrive when and where you were supposed to. Sprains, falls, and dehydration can be common outdoors, so carry a first aid kit and drink plenty of water. Bring extra supplies and be aware of animals like bears that could live in the area. GRILLING SAFETY This is a wonderful time of year to grill up some burgers, but safety can go up in smoke if you don’t use caution around the flames. Position your grill outside so it’s sturdy and away from anything flammable. Never leave the cooking station unattended; ask someone to take over if you need to step away. Wear gloves and avoid any loose- fitting clothing that could dangle into the fire. Kitchen tools, like tongs, are specially designed to keep you safe when handling hot foods. By staying aware and prepared, you can enjoy all the fun summer brings with peace of mind. Let’s make this season one of adventure, joy, and, most importantly, safety.
