COVID-19 Protocols:

A couple of things to put your mind at ease as you start to come back into the classroom setting:

LIFEGUARD COURSES:

Cleaning protocols have been increased
Equipment will be individualized as much as possible (mannequins, AED trainers, etc.)
Due to the nature of the Lifeguarding courses, there will be minimal contact required with other participants.
- For Lifeguard/Lifesaving procedures (Spinals, Unresponsive, etc) we will be using submersible mannequins where possible
- For physical standards required to be done on another person we will be teaching protocols to minimize risk - We will be switching to mannequins as soon as we are on the pool deck
All instructors are trained in updated COVID protocols

FIRST AID COURSES:

You will be set up with your own personal learning station (2m distance from the other stations)
Cleaning protocols have been increased
Equipment will not be shared amongst participants
Any skills involving partner work will be minimized, but when that is not possible, masks and gloves will be required to be worn.

Recertification Courses

NL Waterpark Option Recert

The Lifesaving Society’s National Lifeguard Waterpark Recertification course is designed for individuals whose National Lifeguard Waterpark certification is current or has recently expired, and who wish to renew their status. This course provides an opportunity to review essential lifeguarding skills and knowledge specific to waterpark environments, as well as to learn about any updates to procedures and standards. The recertification exam focuses on key competencies, including waterpark orientation and analysis, lifeguarding slides, river rides, wave pools, entries and removals, sprint challenges, object recovery, and the management of distressed or drowning victims, among others. Candidates must demonstrate proficiency in these areas to successfully renew their certification. It is highly recommended that participants have current First Aid certification and practice their skills, as well as review their knowledge, prior to attending the course. The program includes both classroom and water activities, requiring 100% attendance and participation. Upon successful completion, participants will receive a renewed National Lifeguard Waterpark certification, valid for two years.

Prerequisites: National Lifeguard Waterpark certification (need not be current)
