The Pool Rescue Manikin is a revolutionary new product designed to innovate the way lifeguard training is conducted. This product brings together different elements of lifeguard training, allowing trainees to seamlessly practice different techniques without needing to switch between different equipment or live volunteers. We think that this lifeguard training manikin is the ideal tool for all leisure centres, swimming pools and clubs. 

Designed specifically for lifeguard training and developed with assistance from the Royal Life Saving Society (RLSS) UK.It has been tested extensively by RLSS trained lifeguards and has been officially approved by the RLSS as a tool for lifeguards. 

This manikin has been created to allow trainee lifeguards to learn all the skills required to safely retrieve a person from the pool. It is a lifeguard dummy which allows you to teach a variety of skills. 

As well as general lifeguard training, the Pool Rescue dummy can also be used to practice using the Pool Extraction Boards (PXB) and many lifeguards have commented on how it would be a useful piece of equipment to use for lifeguard zone visibility tests.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

• Carefully designed and tested to create realistic buoyancy - it will sink, yet is buoyant enough to float when being towed. It will feel like an ‘unconscious’ person in the water.
• A more realistic challenge compared to using live volunteers who may try to subconsciously ‘assist’ the trainee.
• The use of a manikin can reduce the need to use volunteers in training scenarios, thereby avoiding potential injury and any embarrassment caused by close personal contact.
• Greatly improves performance - trainers can easily spot weaknesses such as slow towing, as the manikin’s legs will start to sink if a consistent speed is not maintained.
• Flexible arms, reinforced with strong webbing allow the arms to be raised aloft, letting lifeguards practice hauling the ‘victim’ from the water using correct lifting techniques.
• No need to switch from plastic dummy to real volunteer part way through training – this manikin can be fetched from the bottom of the pool, towed to the side and recovered from the water - promoting more realistic and more effective training, ultimately making lifeguards even better!
• Constructed using a reinforced Nylon mesh which allows water ingress, meaning the manikin will sink when placed in water.
• Mesh allows for ventilation and rapid draining when the manikin is retrieved from the water.
• Detailed care instructions will be provided with the manikin.
