Canadian lifeguard age requirements: what you need to know in 2024
In this video, Katie talks about the Lifesaving Society of Canada program change in 2022 to allow National Lifeguards and swim instructors to be certified at age 15, not 16. Why is this change causing so much confusion? Why are people so reticent to make the switch?

    It was a fairly easy switch over for affiliates and facilities in Manitoba, as our swimming pool regulations require that lifeguards and assistant lifeguards be at least 16 years old. Now lifeguards and instructors can take their training at 15 and be ready to go once they have their birthday. As for maturity, you're absolutely right - some 15-year-olds are more mature than adults and vice versa. The competencies effectively measure if lifeguards have the chops.

Entrapment is rare if basic precautions like VGBA compliant drain & suction outlet covers are installed so there are no open pipes in the pool.

    You are absolutely on to something here! There is a definite gap in the true value of swimming at any age really. The gift that a parent or person gives their children or themselves as an adult is so impactful, the access of activities that they provide themselves is immense. As a person who runs a private lesson business so often people quick to ask about discounts on the investment into themselves and their safety, rather than see the real life value in what they are getting out of the hourly lessons, lesson packages, or sessions that they are looking to purchase.

    It would be so stressful to have to ask permission to walk and scan, and have some notion of a 'not severe enough' surface glare to look around. The cameras and a new AI system sound great, but it sounds like the protocol was more for security guards in an office rather then a lifeguard ready to jump in.

    • @LakeviewAquaticConsultantsLtd
      @LakeviewAquaticConsultantsLtd 2 місяці тому

      Some commercial aquatic facilities are very strict and do not allow their lifeguards to choose between standing or sitting; there is a fixed zone with a specific aide at all times. The thinking is it creates a consistent procedure for all staff, but it doesn't take into consideration facility usage, glare, and the guard's individual preferences or competencies based on something as simple as height. It's not necessarily the best way to operate, but some do this. I also spoke to a facility operator recently who did a proposal to install a drowning technology system where one of the guard positions would be in an off-deck office, watching the underwater security footage (similar to security/loss prevention in a retail store), but it didn't fly when it comes to budgetary approval.

    I am so glad this was posted. Trying to break into aquatics and have found wall after wall of leadership instructors not caring about the courses they teach: cutting corners and not caring, like you mention around 33:00 or downright being being abusive, or negligent. Just not being willing to invest in candidates the way -we- are invested in becoming lifeguards/instructors. Raelene mentions this around 29:00 and continues . I have to take most of my LSS courses a second time with just how bad they have been for someone that wants to do the job well. We all want training just believe in us, especially with the recert fear :)

    • @LakeviewAquaticConsultantsLtd
      @LakeviewAquaticConsultantsLtd 4 місяці тому

      For the original construction of the building, yes, via FOIA request (if they have been digitized). Subsequent pool renovations that were done properly may have only been approved via email to the public health inspecter (PHI). That's the process here in Alberta: plans are not filed with the municipality/county, just the province via PHI who retains copies but doesn't file them anywhere searchable. You can make a FOIP request in Canada, but that would take time. Who knows what was done when it comes to any illegal renovations without permitting.
