· To work as a lifeguard, you are responsible for every swimmer at the hotel, whether they are experienced or not, and whether they are children or adults.
· Your job is to ensure safety at the pools or at the resort’s private beach. This includes making the swimming area safe, by getting rid of dangerous objects, encouraging safe play in the water and watching out for weaker swimmers.
· At the pool area you will uphold the rules of the pool, deal with medical emergencies, make sure that the pool is sanitary and safe, and even send unruly children and adults out of the pool area if they are engaging in dangerous or illegal activities.
· If there is an incident at the pool and a swimmer is in trouble, the lifeguard must know CPR and first aid, and be able to administer any treatment required to save the swimmer. Even the most advanced swimmers can have problems like cramping or suffer from a heart attack while swimming at sea, so lifeguards must be prepared for any eventuality.
Job Requirements
To work as a lifeguard at a hotel you will need to have certain qualifications and physical attributes.
· For instance, you need to be a strong swimmer and be physically fit and healthy. You must be strong enough to pull people out of the water, and you must be able to use the safety equipment comfortably and confidently.
· Personality-wise, you will be required to be friendly and welcoming at all times and have a calming attitude about you to reassure guests that they and their children are safe. You must be responsible, mature, and be able to think on your feet, working well under pressure.
· Another requirement that you should have is to be patient. Looking out over the water for hours at a time can be tiring, so you need to have the ability to remain calm and patient when on duty.
