Lack of Pool Supervision
Though lifeguards were effectively launched into the stratosphere of silliness by their portrayal in the globally successful television show, Baywatch, the reality is that trained lifeguards or merely adequate adult supervision can save lives. In the event of a swimming pool accident, the risk of drowning or brain damage due to oxygen deprivation is a very real and present danger. Swift action by an alert adult can both reduce the severity of injuries sustained and save lives, but if there is a lack of swimming pool supervision, then the results can be tragic.
If your child suffered a swimming pool-related injury because the legally liable owner of the pool did not ensure that sufficient monitoring was taking place then it might be in your best interest to file a legal action against the negligent party.

Common Swimming Pool Injuries
Children love to play games and have a tendency to act a bit recklessly at times. Though this can be a healthy part of growth, learning, and development, it is a behavior pattern that simply cannot be transferred to the swimming pool. Professional lifeguards or other persons of age have a responsibility to discourage such activities when they occur in or around the pool, and the failure to do so can have dire consequences. Common swimming pool injuries include:
- Lacerations
- Contusions
- Head Injuries
- Neck Injuries
- Brain Injuries
- Drowning
