High expectations - extreme conditions - danger and risks

You, the lifeguard, are working under extreme conditions. Noise, humidity, heat, glare on the water surface are only some of the factors making your work an extreme challenge.

Apart from greeting your customers, rebuke some cheeky children, distribute toys and other activities, the customers of your swimming pool neither know nor appreciate, your main duty is, to save a life in danger.

Once a person is in danger, you, the lifeguard, have to be available in time, to provide life aid measures.

Especially considering the fact, that always less children know, how to swim, the risk of accidents is increasing. Children get in danger already in shallow water and happening this in big and busy pools, it is almost impossible, to detect them in time. A drowning accident is therefore a very realistic risk.

Even is small swimming-pools, the sight below the water surface is reduced due to toys, light incidence, glare and waves so that in case of the detection of a drowning accident, life aid can be provided only late. However any even small delay may result in long lasting health damages which could have been avoided when detection was realized earlier.

Risks are especially evident in pools with depth of more than 1.80 mtrs. In those it is even more difficult to realize for the lifguard, what happens below the water surface. Also adventure areas with slides are very critical in respect to incidents. Due do many children concentrating in a quite small area, it is almost impossible for the lifeguard to oversee what occurs. 

In case, a drowning accident occurs, the public immediately comes up with questions. Questions asking for the the responsibility. Questions asking whether everything possible was done to avoid such an accident. Was the number of lifeguards sufficient. Was really everything done by the carrier of the bath to assure the security of the swimmer?

A reproad against the lifeguard isn´t effective becuase he definitely did everything to save a victim once it is detected. The only question is: Is the lifeguard able to detect an accident in time... as time is the main factor in case of a drowning accident!
