Patrolling the beach is the most important role you will undertake as a lifesaver. It is where all your training and experience will be called upon to ensure beachgoers are able to return home safely after a visit to the beach.
It is important to remember that when the public see you on patrol, they will have an expectation that:
- you have the knowledge and skills to keep them safe
- you are at all times ready to come to their aid should it be required.
Accordingly, it is important you convey an image of competence and professionalism whenever you are wearing your patrol uniform.
