In the LCI morning show of Pascale de La Tour du Pin, a report on the AUTO-RESCUE® program highlighted the Swim Stars coaches.
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 pools2) Supervision by parents and lifeguards3) learning to become autonomous
Indeed, survey results (2018) by Santé Publique France show that drownings of children are on the rise.
“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.
