What my statergies are for concerns
if a child was to drown while I was around the first thing I would do is try to retrieve them from the pool, next I would use the CPR method to see if they would respond. If they did not respond I would dial 000 to get medical help and advise. also if they were to slip and crack there head open for instance, the first thing that I would do is call 000 to aid to the child. for more information go to our website;
