Studies conducted worldwide on how child-drowning incidents occur indicate that
SUPERVISION CAN & DOES FAIL
  Of all pre-schoolers who drown
• 70% are in the care of one or both parents at the time of drowning
• 75% are missing from sight for five minutes or less
 
A child can drown in the time it takes to answer a phone
For every one child who drowns, four are hospitalized for near-drowning, resulting in disabling brain damage
Drowning is the leading cause of death for children under five
Drowning is considered a “silent death”. Most drowning victims are unable to yell or wave their arms to alert someone
 
   
The Safety Turtle immersion alarm is an effective and proven “last line of defence” to protect your child against drowning in a swimming pool or any other water hazard
 
One Base Station supports any number of Turtle wristbands
 
Safety Turtle is totally portable – take it with you wherever you go
 
The loud alarms sounds instantly at the Base Station when the Turtle is in contact with water and continues to sound until it is re-set.
