[Sportsandrec] I would like to hear from anyone out there who is a lifeguard.

[Robert Moore]

Hi, 
I can not speak here from experience However depending on the responces you
might get. I  wonder if an assistant might also be a consideration. I don't
know if  life  gards work in pares but if they do. I don't see any   reason
a totally blind person could not assist in a    rescue effort and assist in
CPR or what ever other situations they are trained for. 
 I am not saying one way or the other, just thinking there might be more
than one option to explore.

We have a totally blind client wanting to do that over the summer, but don't
know if this is realistic.  I learned long ago to never assume, and wanted
to check with the community.

Thanks very much.
