Child Safety Link Child Safety Link (CSL) is the children's injury prevention program of IWK Health, located in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.

We serve the Atlantic Canadian provinces of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland and Labrador. Visit us for the latest info on how to keep your family safe from injury! Throughout the year, CSL will be using this Facebook site to share the latest information on children’s safety issues, injury trends, product recalls, and lots of useful info and tips to help parents and caregivers keep their children safe from unintentional injuries. We are not trying to prevent bumps and bruises—those are a normal part of every childhood! Rather, we are trying to help prevent major, life-altering injuries. Like our page and stay up-to-date with the latest in injury prevention in Atlantic Canada. For more on Child Safety Link, and to access our wide library of downloadable resources and educational videos about preventing injuries in children of all ages and stages, visit our website at www.childsafetylink.ca.

Drowning can happen quickly, silently and in only a few centimetres of water.

Follow these tips for a safe swim:

• Teach children about water safety by signing them up for swim lessons and water safety programs;
• Swim in a safe place, like a supervised beach or public swimming pool;
• Make sure children are wearing high-visibility swimwear – bright, high-contrast colours are easier to see.
