    • The lifeguard can identify objects on the pool bottom that are not normal

    Maintain Safety Through Vigilance

    • The Lifeguard Candidate can demonstrate different scanning patterns and techniques used by lifeguards
    • The Lifeguard Candidate can describe common distractions to vigilance; how lifeguards avoid them and why
    • The Lifeguard Candidate can demonstrate the 10/20 Protection™ standard by recognition and recovery of a submerged manikin or silhouette in the training pool

    CPR and AED Administration

    • The Lifeguard Candidate can retrieve and turn on the AED
    • The Lifeguard Candidate can perform CPR for approximately two minutes and then allow the AED to reanalyze
    • The Lifeguard Candidate can describe adjustments when confronted with a child or an infant, water present on the chest, excessive hair in pad placement locations, jewelry or piercings, medication patch, internal defibrillator, or pregnancy

    Management of Airway Complications during BLS Care

    • The Lifeguard Candidate can demonstrate how to respond if an unresponsive guest vomits during BLS care
    • The Lifeguard Candidate can determine when the obstruction is total then take steps to relieve obstruction
    • The Lifeguard Candidate can manage the scene safely
    • The Lifeguard Candidate can position hands correctly and deliver upward/inward thrusts (Heimlich maneuver)

    • The Lifeguard Candidate can repeat these steps until the infant’s airway is relieved or becomes unresponsive

    Readying the Trauma Bag and Preparing Oxygen Delivery Equipment

    • The Lifeguard Candidate can locate in the trauma bag: the supplemental oxygen tank with regulator, bag valve masks, spare HEPA filters or B/V filters, resuscitation mask with available filter, and manual suction device
    • The Lifeguard Candidate can demonstrate proper device attachment and set oxygen regulator to 15 lpm to deliver O2

    Providing BLS Care as an active member of a response team

    • The Lifeguard Candidate/Response Team can demonstrate application of skills as the first responder to arrive at the scene
