The swimming pool has signs that say that the Parent is responsible for watching their own children, what responsibility do the lifeguards have, if any?
Parents must watch over their children at all times, whether they are in the water, around the pool or on the water. Lifeguards are responsible for the general aquatic safety of everyone they are supervising, but it is up to the parent to keep a protective eye on their children. The primary job of a lifeguard is to watch over the swimmers and keep people from harm. Lifeguards must be well trained in methods of saving drowning victims and getting them out of the water and on to dry land. They must also know how to properly administer CPR and other first aid techniques that could save a life.
