How hard is it to be a life guard?
well i am going to go 2 a life guarding class tommrow and so to learn to be a life guard. I have to swim 500 meter lap thats 20 right? Any tips on life guarding?
It’s not hard if you do what you’re supposed to do and if you know your stuff
500m= 10 laps in an olympic size pool (if the pool in question is very long, the most likely it’s olympic) otherwise yes to 20 laps.
As for the class, pay attention to your instructor(s) and ask every question that comes across your mind (I asked what do we do if a space shuttle falls out of the sky) Remember the more you ask the better you’ll be. People’s lives have to potential to be in your hands.
There’s not much I can say because you’ll learn it anyway. If you have specific questions thoughout your course, i’d be happy to answer them.
but here are some things new guards often forget:
Use your gloves during CPR. (for sanitary reasons, you will fail your final test if you don’t)
never jump in the water on a spinal injury
don’t scan only the top of the water, look IN it too.
Everything is just common Sense, but we all forget the little things!!!
