  • Monitor and record pool chemical levels on an hourly basis and keep the facility manager informed of any changes or unusual readings.
  • Constant communication with supervisor.

  • A little service goes a long way; learn members’ routines and habits - e.g.: if you know that the resident always uses a kickboard, take one out for them.
  • Remain thoroughly apprised and familiar with all ISM and client policies and procedures.
  • Be available to substitute for other staff members.
  • Fill out incident reports for any first aid or event that occurs in the facility or pool area.
  • Clean the surrounding fixtures in the pool, including, but not limited to any stainless steel and glass.

  • Current American Red Cross CPR certification or equivalent.
  • Complete ISM’s pre-employment water skills assessment
  • Sufficient fluency in English for water safety/lifesaving purposes
