One of the best parts of summer is enjoying a hot day by the pool. It’s a relaxing environment that can be spent with family and friends. Unfortunately, the pool may be somewhat of a hazardous area within a house that could result in an accident and injury.
Every year, thousands end up in the hospital because of blunt force trauma as a result of an accident by the swimming pool. According to studies, a swimming pool in ones home is 100 times more likely to cause a fatality – this is a number that exceeds even the possession of a hand gun in the house. Having a pool means the homeowner needs to be extremely careful and maintain the pool and the surrounding area with the upmost care.
Reasons for Swimming Pool Accidents
There are a number of reasons why a swimming pool injury can occur including:
-Failing to properly maintain pool equipment
-Failure to provide adequate supervision
-Failure to create a safe pool environment such as warning signs and avoiding overcrowding
The owner of the pool would ultimately be liable for any deaths or injuries because of their negligence. Homeowners need to take extra care in the upkeep of their property and minimizing hazards completely. Guests are dependent on the safety measures put in place by owners.
