If you ever find yourself struggling in water over your head, remember: flip, float, follow. Flip over on your back, float to keep your head above water and conserve your energy, and follow the current to find the safest path out of the water. Swim perpendicular to the flow of the current. Paul Oliver Memorial Hospital recently received a grant to teach this technique and more about drowning education in Benzie County.
