ABC’s of Water Safety

C is for Classes. Take first aid, CPR, and swimming classes, and follow the safety tips included in our ABC’s of Water Safety flyer and social media posts. Always keep a phone nearby to call 9-1-1. Teach children that running, jumping, and pushing others on pool decks is dangerous and can cause injuries. Always enter the pool feet first so you know how deep the water is in that area.

Fireworks

Firework injuries are increasing by 535 each year. Safe and Sane fireworks are only legal in the cities of Anaheim, Buena Park, Costa Mesa, Fullerton, Garden Grove, Huntington Beach, Los Alamitos, Santa Ana, Stanton, Villa Park, and Westminster. Only purchase Safe and Sane fireworks that are State Fire Marshal approved and follow the safety tips included in our Fireworks flyer and social media post.

In case of an accident, call 9-1-1 and run cool water over any burn.
Light fireworks outdoors in a clear area and at a safe distance away from people, homes, vehicles, or flammable materials.
Never point or throw fireworks at another person.
