Examples Of Causes And Effects

Causes of swimming pool accidents often involve carelessness, maintenance lapses and poor supervision. Signs around swimming pools may spell out safety rules and clarify that lifeguards are not present, but these signs do not necessarily let the swimming pool owners and managers off the hook.

Other types of swimming pool accidents have a great variety of causes. A cut caused by a broken bottle beside a swimming pool could be a result of inadequate upkeep of the surroundings.

Some swimming pool accidents have been called freak accidents although poor design and engineering made them possible. For example, some unfortunate children have suffered injuries to their internal organs when they sat on suction intake valves under the water.

Quite a few swimming pool patrons have suffered from Recreational Water Illness (RWI) and ingesting germs and chemicals.

Injuries caused by altercations in a public pool may also be called swimming pool accidents since patrons of a swimming pool make up the crowd. Swimming pool managers are responsible for the surveillance that patrons should be able to count on.
