Lifeguard Ambulance Service wants you to play it safe this holiday season. New toys and games can be fun, but they can also be dangerous if misused or fall into the hands of children too young to play with them. Remember these safety tips when purchasing or receiving toys and games this season.

Consider a child’s age when purchasing a toy or game – read warning labels to make sure it is age-appropriate

Check to make sure there aren’t any small parts or other potential choking hazards for young children

Look for points, edges or breakable parts that could be sharp and avoid those toys for children under eight

Include safety equipment when purchasing toys such as bicycles, skateboards or roller skates

December is National Impaired Driving Prevention Month, and Lifeguard Ambulance Service encourages you to drive smart and safe this month and always. As friends and family gather for the holiday season, please keep these tips in mind to ensure your loved ones make it home safe.

Establish a designated driver before attending events and parties

Use a ride share service

Discuss the dangers of underage alcohol and substance abuse, especially when combined with operating motor vehicles, with young family members and friends

Arrange to drive youth to and from holiday activities, as they may find it difficult to decline a ride from a friend who is impaired

With so many parties, festivities and events to attend, Lifeguard Ambulance Service offers the following safety tips to keep your pets safe and sound this holiday season.

Seasonal Plants - Avoid having holly, mistletoe and poinsettias in reach of pets as they can be toxic if ingested.

Decorations - Always keep anything that may be ingested out of the reach of pets, such as tinsel and ornaments, which can become lodged within the gastrointestinal tract and require surgery.

Light Strands and Cords - Place Christmas lights, electrical cords and candles out of reach of pets as they can be a fire hazard and lead to electric shock. To prevent pets from experiencing shock, consider using a protective cord covering to prevent teeth from sinking in.

Food - Pets should always be kept away from any items containing xylitol, alcohol, fatty meats, bones, and most importantly, chocolate-which can become lethal if ingested even in the smallest quantity.

Noise - Ensure your pets have a quiet room as fireworks, horns, bells and whistles can be frightening to pets.

Outdoor laser light displays have become a popular way to decorate homes during the holiday season. While these displays are very festive, many homeowners are unaware of the danger they can pose to pilots flying overhead if improperly positioned. In 2021, the FAA logged a record-breaking 8,550 laser strike reports. Lifeguard Ambulance Service encourages homeowners to consider the following when setting up holiday light displays.

Position the laser light so that the beams are terminated on the surface of your home, trees with very dense foliage or objects on the ground. The projectors should be arranged to prevent beams from going into airspace.

Make sure your display device power is listed below 1 milliwatt.

Never aim a laser pointer or laser display into the sky. Purposely aiming at an aircraft could lead to fines of up to $11,000 and possible jail time.

Winter holidays are a fun time to gather and celebrate. The holidays are also a time of increased fire risk and accidents in the home. Lifeguard Ambulance Service offers these guidelines to help keep your holiday season safe.

Holiday entertaining – keep an eye on the range (unattended cooking is the leading cause of house fires) and be sure your smoke detectors are working.

Holiday lighting – use caution with decorations and choose flame-resistant, flame-retardant and non-combustible materials when possible. Use only certified lights for outdoor decorating.

Indoor decorations – choose decorations made of non-leaded materials. Keep candles away from children, decorations and live plants.

Trees – check for freshness when purchasing a live tree (green with needles hard to pull from branches) and look for a “fire-resistant” label when purchasing an artificial tree.

Fire prevention – always turn off your decorations when you leave your home and when you’re sleeping. Most deadly fires happen while people are asleep.
