Drownings: The Reality
We all want to keep our children safe and secure and help them live to their full potential. Knowing how to prevent leading causes of child injury, like drowning, is a step toward this goal.

When most of us are enjoying time at the pool or beach, injuries aren’t the first thing on our minds. Yet, drownings are the leading cause of injury death for young children ages 1 to 4, and three children die every day as a result of drowning.

Thankfully, parents can play a key role in protecting the children they love from drowning.

Prevention Tips Fence it off.
Install a four–sided isolation fence, with self–closing and self–latching gates, around backyard swimming pools. This can help keep children away from the area when a parent cannot supervise them. Pool fences should completely separate the house and play area from the pool.

Make life jackets a "must."
Make sure kids wear life jackets in and around natural bodies of water, such as lakes or the ocean, even if they know how to swim.

Learn CPR.
Learn cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and get recertified every two years. CPR can help a child stay alive with little or no brain damage.

Be on the look out.
Supervise young children at all times around bathtubs, swimming pools, and natural bodies of water. Adults watching kids near water should avoid distracting activities like playing cards, reading books, or talking on the phone.

When is the best time to have a pool fence installed in SW Florida?
The simple answer is: Pool safety fences can never be installed too soon. Many people find that they have a comfort level if the pool safety fence is installed while their baby is still in
the infant stage. Also, many young families whose baby is not yet mobile have friends who visit with slightly older babies and toddlers. The pool safety fence being installed and in place gives them a sense of protection.
The National Safety Council,  pediatricians and most drowning prevention committees recommended to  install a pool safety fence or other baby barrier like a Pool Net or Pool safety cover by the time the baby is between the ages of 6 to 9 months old. The reason for this being the perfect age is because although the baby may not yet be walking, a small child can't verbally communicate. They can't tell their parents that "this week I'm crawling, but next week I'm going to be walking". By having a USA Pool Fence installed BEFORE a baby is mobile, parents are guaranteeing the safety of their children around the swimming pool. 

For families who are moving into a new home with a swimming pool, the best time to have a pool safety fence installed is the day you close on the home.
The pool is a novelty to the children and moving day is always hectic. People are in and out and doors are left open. Everyone is distracted and too many times nobody is watching the little ones. If a pool safety fence is installed before a family actually moves into the home
there is little chance of an accident. Even if a small child turns 6-9 months of age during the winter or a family moves into a new home with a pool during the winter months, it's time for the swimming pool fence. The pool is outside 365 days a year - a swimming pool safety fence should be there to protect against drowning as well. Accidents know no seasons.

Every year  thousands of young children in the United States drown in
swimming pools. Even  more children are victims of near-drownings. Most of these
accidents occur in  the family’s backyard swimming pool. Seventy-five% of
children were last seen  by their parents within five minutes of drowning.
Drowning is called the “Silent  Killer”. There is no splash nor cry for
help.
 Drowning is the only childhood  death that can totally be prevented.
Installing a pool fence around a swimming  pool where a young child spends time
can prevent drownings. Pool fences, unlike  alarms or covers, create a barrier
between a young child and the swimming pool.  Swimming pool safety fences are
non-climbable and when the pool fence is installed  correctly it prevents a
small child from getting over it, under it, through it  or opening it.
Installing a self-closing, self-latching, key-lockable walk-through  gate adds a
layer of safety, as well as convenience. 
Swimming pool fences in Naples and Fort Myers are so effective in preventing drowning accidents that  many States including Florida have now mandated legislation requiring pool
fences be installed around  any new swimming pool being constructed. In States
such as Florida, Nevada, Arizona,  Texas and California, where swimming pools
are prevalent, swimming pool fences  have drastically cut down the number of
drownings and near drownings.
Layers  of protection around a swimming pool are important. Every parent
should know CPR  and small children should be afforded swimming lessons;
however, safety experts  agree that prevention is the best method to prevent
drownings. Pool safety fences  around a pool ensure that there is a barrier
between the child and the the edge  of the pool and therefore prevent
accidents.
 Who needs a pool fence? Swimming  pool safety fences should be installed
around every backyard swimming pool at  a home where young children live.
Additionally, grandparents’ pools should be  equipped with pool fences, as well
as anyone providing day care at their home  with a pool.
 Pool fences provide the best of both worlds – families can  enjoy their
backyard swimming pool and at the same time know their small children  are safe.
If a small child opens a door and walks out to the backyard swimming  pool he or
she is protected from accidentally falling into the pool if a pool  safety fence
has been installed. When pool fences are installed around a backyard  swimming
pool, pool safety truly is no accident.

 According to Government statistics, accidental drowning is the number one cause of accidental death for children under the age of 5 in California, Arizona and Florida. Pool Fencing is the safest choice to prevent this kind of tragedy.

Pool fences, commonly known as a pool safety fencing or swimming pool  fences, are the best form of  a 'passive protection babysitter' any home  can have. Installing removable mesh
fencing can be a child lifesaver by  protecting against accidental drowning of
children, toddlers, baby and even  pets.

Pool safety fences are also known as a  'baby gates' or  'pool barriers' for swimming  pools. The relevance is obvious;  a baby or toddler is most susceptible to  drowning if no safety pool  barrier is there to prevent them  from falling in.
Swimming-pool baby gates should have a gate  latch (gate lock),
preferably a self locking gate lock mechanism and be up to  your local building
code. Removable mesh fencing can be  temporary, is nearly
transparent, protects your swimming pool better than an  electronic alarm, and
with aluminum construction, will be maintenance free for  years.
