LCI report: AUTO-RESCUE® in the morning show
In the LCI morning show of Pascale de La Tour du Pin, a report on the AUTO-RESCUE® program highlighted the Swim Stars coaches.
Focus on the AUTO-RESCUE® program
To prevent drowning, Roxane Maracineanu, the newly appointed Minister of Sports and former swimming champion, emphasized 3 extremely important points to prevent drowning:
1) the security of swimming pools
2) Supervision by parents and lifeguards
3) learning to become autonomous
“Drowning prevention strategies must be comprehensive. In 2018, children under the age of 6 actually accounted for 28% of accidental drownings and 9% of deaths. 44% of accidental drownings occurred at sea. 31% in pools of all types. 22% in rivers or lakes and 4% in other places (baths, ponds, etc.)” reports the survey.
Journalist Solène Chavanne took a closer look at the AUTO-RESCUE® program
program, which consists of a few sessions, starting at the age of 3, to learn how to save oneself.
