Video: “Spinal Injuries in the Water”

It’s now July 5th and the beaches here in the Outer Banks are fully packed with tourists and locals for the summer months. With an influx of population comes an increase in injuries especially related to our beaches. This video is a simple reminder on how to prevent a serious injury from occurring and how to handle the situation if it happens. CURRENTtv in cooperation with the Town of Kill Devil Hills, Dare County EMS and the Outer Banks Hospital provides helpful information about spinal injuries while playing in the surf, sound or in the pool.
