Lifeguard<br />

Training<br />

courses<br />

at the <strong>Bellevue</strong> CluB<br />

The American Red Cross introduces the newly revised<br />

Lifeguarding program, which trains lifeguards to act<br />

with speed and confidence in emergency situations<br />

both in and out of the water. Topics include: water<br />

rescue skills, surveillance and recognition, first aid,<br />

breathing and cardiac emergencies, CPR, AED and<br />

more. The new program reflects the latest ECC<br />

science and findings from the 2011 United States<br />

Lifeguard Standards Coalition Report.<br />

For more information on the scientific changes,<br />

please refer to the following: “United States Lifeguard<br />

Standards: An Evidence-Based Review and Report<br />

by the United States Lifeguard Standards Coalition,”<br />
