20.01.2022 Wearing a lifejacket buys you time to be picked up in case you fall into the water. #wearalifejacket #playitsafebythewater

19.01.2022 Not snake awareness, but given the warm weather, a little awareness for those heading down to the local rivers to cool off. You may hear from time to time peopl...e talking about Bullrout. They are not an urban myth to keep the tourists away from the local water holes..... These little guys are very much real, and can be commonly found in many rivers and creeks throughout Eastern NSW and QLD. They are basically a freshwater stonefish, a member of the scorpion fish family. They are often found around obstructions such as rocks and logs in or near fast flowing water. Stepping on one of these guys can ruin a fun afternoon, causing excrutiating pain to the affected limb. First aid treatment involves immersing effected area in hot water and seek further medical assistance. Additional medical treatment often involves pain relief and injection of lidocaine to puncture sight(s). To avoid a mishap with one of these, a pair of old joggers or aqua shoes is a recomened before enjoying the rope swing and rappids. See more

18.01.2022 If you're not a strong swimmer be cautious around inland and coastal waterways. Currents can be stronger than you think, even in shallow water. Know your limits. #RespectTheRiver

17.01.2022 Prepare to survive: Know the five when heading out on the water know the weather; practise getting back on; carry a distress beacon; lock in a buddy plan; and wear a lifejacket. http://msv.vic.gov.au/prepare #playitsafebythewater

14.01.2022 A big thank you to our dedicated lifesavers and lifeguards for keeping beachgoers safe over the weekend!

13.01.2022 When at home or out in the community, if you're around water, actively supervise children at all times.

13.01.2022 A young Italian colleague in Sydney recently told me that her mum couldn’t swim and she, herself, was TERRIFIED of drowning, in fact, it was at the top of her l...ist of fears. Why am I sharing this sobering thought? . Well, 105 people have lost their lives in the water this Summer (Royal Life Saving Summer Drowning Toll as at 21/02/19) with MORE THAN A THIRD of these drownings are those in the 18-34 year age group. 36 young adults won’t graduate, won’t celebrate their next birthday, won’t get married and raise a family, won’t get to go on their OE and have the best experiences of their lives, won’t get offered the job of their dreams, won’t be a bridesmaid or groomsman for their friend, won’t develop the next life-changing innovation. These are our friends and family who are at high risk of drowning in one of the the most educated countries in the world!! WE have a responsibility to ensure that our friends do not live their entire lives with this FEAR OF THE WATER. Join The Swim Project on Saturday 2 March at 10.30am in Brunswick to hear 7-time Paralympic Medallist Matt Levy share his journey to becoming World Champion and how The Swim Project is clearing the way for more young adults to learn to swim.

10.01.2022 Whether it’s at the pool, beach, river or at bathtime, always supervise children around water and keep children under 5 within arm’s reach. 20 seconds is all it takes for a toddler to drown. #keepwatch #playitsafebythewater

09.01.2022 Rip currents are the number one cause of drowning on Australian beaches. Learn how to identify and avoid a rip current: http://bit.ly/2eOIqjd #swimbetweentheflags #playitsafebythewater

01.01.2022 Last week the Sydney Morning Herald ran an informative article on the little White Tail Spider (https://bit.ly/2GwuTZL) and it is certainly worth the 5 minute r...ead. In summary, the article points out that: * these little fellows are pretty common in bathrooms and bedrooms * they love to hide in clothing and bed sheets * their bite varies from being similar to an ant bite or right up to a burning, terrible pain * the bite can cause a rash or an itchy lump which may last for up to a week and in some cases it can form into an ulcer * it DOES NOT cause the flesh eating disease which has lead to people to losing their limbs! The article caused a lot of people to share their own experience of a bite from a White Tail (https://bit.ly/2WXKLKR) and we have summarised the main views below: Body part - lower limbs 45%, upper limbs 30%, & torso 23% Location - bed 80% & towel 13% Pain - itch/ sting 40%, ant/ mozzie bite 30%, & burning 25% Pain Longevity - Weeks 50%, Days, 29%, & Months 21% Lasting effect - swelling/ lump 42%, ulcer 25%, dead skin 15%, rash 6%, & scar 6% ACTION: make sure to pick up clothes from the floor; check your baby/ child's bed before putting them in; and shake your towels before use. FIRST AID: an ice pack brings effective relief and also helps to reduce the itch and the subsequent swelling. If pain is persistent then provide your child with one dose of paracetamol and call your GP for detailed advice. If your child's condition worsens, or their breathing is affected, then please call 000 promptly.
