Following a commitment declared at our Tasmania Industry Networking event in December 2022 by CEO Michael Ilinsky to deliver greater education, support and engagement of the Tasmanian government, industry and community now and in the future. Key team members from our Royal Life Saving NSW | ACT | TAS head office visited our southern friends to deliver on this promise. Two events were scheduled over this week a Drowning Prevention Workshop in Hobart facilitated by our General Manager of Drowning Prevention and Education, Craig Roberts. The purpose of this workshop is to discuss programs, strategies and opportunities targeting inland waterways and ageing communities along with other identified at-risk groups in order reduce drownings and better service the communities. This is the third Workshop of this kind that we have delivered in the past 8 months with others taking place in the Albury-Wodonga region and Western Sydney with more regions to come. Drowning Prevention is a critical issue within the community, and we can’t make a significant difference in this area without a collaborative and holistic approach. The Aquatic Leadership Seminar held in Launceston was attended by an impressive range of local Industry professionals. The Royal Life Saving Aquatic Regional Seminar Series that commenced in the Hunter Region in July 2022, covered a range of topics for Aquatic Leaders with a focus on aquatic management, risk services and partnership opportunities as well as streams for both pool operations and swim school management. In addition to these events, the team undertook a series of localised filming of Tasmania waterways and people that will be used to develop further water safety and drowning prevention campaigns to promote within the community. We had the pleasure of engaging with two high profile locals the Honourable Nick Duigan MLC –Legislative Council, Liberal Member for Windermere and former host of National fishing show Hook, Line and Sinker along with Peter Tonkin, former Olympic Swimmer and coach to help spread these important safety message.

Australians aged 45 years and over are being encouraged to consult their doctor before enjoying the health benefits of swimming to prevent drowning deaths involving people with pre-existing conditions. ​ Royal Life Saving New South Wales (NSW) together with the NSW Government has launched a Swim Ready initiative to educate and raise awareness among people aged over 45 years about the link between the use of medication and an increased risk of drowning. Over the past 17 years, 843 people aged 45 years and over lost their lives to drowning in NSW. Of these, 55% involved people with pre-existing conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, mental health and dementia. ​ All medication has possible side effects that can have an impact on exercise. This can put people at higher risk of drowning when participating in aquatic activities. For example, dizziness, fainting, chest pain, headaches, confusion, blurred vision and muscle pain, can all affect a person’s capacity to stay safe in water. Drowning data from 2008/09 to 2017/18 suggests that, for unintentional fatal drownings in older people, an estimated 36% were taking some form of medication or drug. Of these, 65% of drownings involved multiple drugs. “More and more Australians are enjoying the health benefits of swimming later in life. Our Swim Ready initiative highlights our commitment to encouraging active lifestyles while ensuring everyone stays safe while they are in the water.” Michael Ilinsky, Chief Executive Officer, Royal Life Saving NSW. ​ Office of Sport Acting chief executive officer Karen Jones said swimming was a fantastic activity for people of all ages but insisted everyone is Swim Ready. “I encourage everyone to swim in a safe and responsible manner, and enjoy the health benefits that it brings,” Ms Jones said. “Swimming should be done in consideration of any pre-existing health conditions that can create a drowning risk.” ​ As people age, changes occur in the way their bodies process medications, and the benefit/risk profile of a medication can change. ​ Chronic medical conditions are more common in ageing populations which means older people are more likely to be prescribed several medications. Multiple drug interactions can be complex and can increase the incidence of side effects in older individuals, which can increase the risk of drowning in this group. 8 Dec 2020 Royal Life Saving New South Wales launches Swim Ready initiative to keep Australians safe while swim Risk and Safety < Back to News Australians aged 45 years and over are being encouraged to consult their doctor before enjoying the health benefits of swimming to prevent drowning deaths involving people with pre-existing conditions.
