Safety Corner

High Sierra Pools considers safety the most crucial aspect of pool management. Our attention to detail, innovative instructional methods, and precision training for lifeguards are unmatched within the industry. We value the close relationship we enjoy with the American Red Cross and the programs jointly administered to ensure lifeguards receive the ultimate in aquatics safety. High Sierra Pools is the #1 American Red Cross training provider in the United States, certifying nearly 2,000 new lifeguards each year.

We are so dedicated to safety that we employ ten seasonal, highly qualified Red Cross Instructors to perform safety inspections and conduct unscheduled safety audits. Each summer safety team is also responsible for coaching lifeguards continuously and reminding them of proper safety protocols. Continuous lifeguard instruction reinforces the need to be vigilant in recognizing behaviors that may lead to life-threatening emergencies.

By reinforcing safety-first principles, client facilities and those who enjoy the pool and property can be confident in the ability of our staff to respond to emergencies and maintain a safe environment.

High Sierra Pools also requires monthly training for all its employed lifeguards, with our safety team scheduling this essential continuing education. As a result, our lifeguards are prepared for emergencies. They are capable of applying best practices and procedures to help prevent accidents and confidently react to an emergency.
