CHILD-FA-2 · Paediatric Emergencies Onboard: Recognise, Alert, Prevent · CHILD-FA-2.1 Water and Airway

Drowning is the dominant paediatric risk on a yacht and it is silent, fast and easy to miss. Raise the alarm, keep eyes on the child, get the trained responder, and send every immersion casualty to a doctor even if they seem completely fine.
