The risk management of drowning in the Northern provinces of Iran

Conclusions: Relief and rescue equipment in coastal provinces need to be increased quantitatively and qualitatively, and basic measures should be taken to improve the personal and public health in these areas. Paying attention and proper management in some primary issues can prevent the occurrence of drowning events. The appropriate measures included equipping survivors with rescue equipment and paying disbursement fees based on the salary table of the Life-saving Federation, informing the risks of swimming through the national media, and increasing the number of fixed and mobile relief and rescue posts on the beaches.
