The Important Role Of Our Lifeguards at BlueFit

At BlueFit, we pride ourselves on maintaining high standards in our swim centres and health clubs.

A pivotal part of this success comes from our dedicated and diligent lifeguards, who ensure the smooth operation of our facilities. They play an integral role in the safety and enjoyment of our members and guests, fostering a welcoming environment for everyone. Our lifeguards are fundamental to the safety and enjoyment of our members and guests, requiring strong customer service, pool supervision, and time management skills.

  • Supervision of Patrons: Monitoring all guests in the pool area (both indoors and outdoors) to provide assistance to those in distress and ensure compliance with rules.
  • First Aid Preparedness: Being ready to apply First Aid skills, including CPR, when necessary.
  • Staying Alert: Remaining vigilant and attentive to the pool and its patrons at all times.
