Abstract

In this era of health care reform and restraint, there is a resurgence of interest in health promotion and injury prevention. This renewal has added another dimension to the practice of nursing--the expectation that health teaching is included in our interactions with families. This paper will explore submersion injuries in children which, according to Brill, (1987) are uniquely preventable. The ultimate aim of discussing this topic is an increased commitment by nurses to the prevention of submersion injuries.
