Pool Lifeguard
Register NowOverview
This practical course develops swimming, rescue, casualty management, and emergency-response skills for pool or beach lifeguarding.
Participants practise water entries, rescue approaches, casualty removal, spinal management, backboard use, shallow- and deep-water response, CPR, first aid, rescue breathing, and realistic rescue scenarios.
Target Audience
Individuals seeking pool-lifeguard training who are physically capable of completing the required swimming, rescue, casualty-handling, and emergency-response assessments.
Entry Requirements
Participants must be physically able to perform every required procedure and attend all sessions to be eligible for assessment. Swimming and fitness requirements must be confirmed before enrolment because the source gives conflicting 300-, 500-, and 550-yard examples and states that requirements can vary.
Key Benefits
Assessment
Instructor assessment of swimming fitness, rescue skills, casualty-management techniques, and practical scenarios. The source does not provide a complete assessment method or pass criteria.
