![]() ISR's safety record and proven instruction techniques are uniquely tailored to your child's needs based on comprehensive assessment and continual monitoring of your child's health and skill attainment, by certified ISR instructors. For your child's well-being and comfort, prior to each lesson you receive BUDS (bowel, urine, diet, sleep) forms. This sheet tracks the unique physiology of your child, including bowel movements, frequency of urination, diet and meal-times, and the duration of every sleep episode in a 24-hour period. Before each lesson, your ISR instructor will review the BUDS sheet and ask you further questions if necessary, and then individualize the lesson for your child. If your instructor feels any of these key measurements are not as they should be, your child's lesson will not take place. The BUDS sheet ensures your child learns in a healthy and safe environment. ISR Certified Master Instructor Jan Orwick stated "ISR always emphasizes safety over convenience and we tend to find that the parents feel much more comfortable about this as well. While it is a fair amount of paperwork, any program that involves the safety and well being of young children needs to be conscientious and very thorough. We review every registration form and our pediatric nurses also review certain forms where the student might have an issue or circumstance of concern. We also have David Carr, M.D. as our board-certified pediatrician and he too assists in the evaluations of selected ISR materials." Copyright © 2012 ISR of Lake Lanier, LLC

![]() Most parents worry about swimming pools and bathtubs but there are hidden dangers around the house too! An April 2011 report from the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) indicates that from 2005-2009, there were about 660 submersion incidents involving children younger than five years old in non-pool and non-spa products. Bathtubs, buckets, and toilets are just a few examples of places around the home where a young child can drown if not monitored properly. Here are some prevention tips that ISR of Lake Lanier has put together from the CPSC and various water safety programs: 1. Never leave young children alone near any water or tub or basin with fluid. Young children can drown in even small amounts of water. 2. Always keep a young child within arm’s reach in a bathtub. If you must leave, take the child with you. 3. Don’t leave a baby or young child in a bathtub under the care of another young child. 4. Never leave your child unattended in a tub or shower. If you use a bath seat or bathing cradle, do not be lulled into a false sense of security and keep an eye on them at all times. Children have drowned in tubs while strapped into these devices that have tipped over and trapped their faces underwater. 5. Keep all bathing equipment – like sponges, soaps and towels – nearby and within arm’s reach so you do not need to let go of your child or turn your back on them while they are in the tub or shower to retrieve that equipment. 6. Keep toilet lids shut and use toilet locks to prevent toddlers from climbing or falling into the toilet. Children have actually drowned in toilets by climbing on them and falling in headfirst, where they get stuck and are unable to lift their heads above the water to breathe.
