A father is discussing the new swimming pool the family has put in for the children to use. The nurse should provide education on:

1. Placing a gate around the pool with a child safety lock.
2. Keeping the chlorine balanced.
3. Keeping the water temperature above 80 degrees.
4. Placing lights around the pool.

Feedback
1. A gate with a safety lock can prevent children from wandering into the pool area without an adult present.
2. The chlorine balance is not the top priority.
3. The water temperature will fluctuate with the weather and is not a safety hazard at this time.
4. Lights can increase the visual field, but will not prevent accidents for children.
