Imagine an emergency situation where you need to act quickly. In a moment of panic, an unfamiliar object like a rescue tube can be overwhelming for special needs swimmers who have never seen a rescue tube.
That’s why it’s so important to introduce and practice using pool safety equipment with your family member who might have sensory challenges, autism, and who is obsessed with the water. Practicing these routines well before an emergency arises will improve the chance of a successful safety intervention.
