What is an entry level EMT lifeguard?

Entry Level EMT Lifeguards are professionals who are both certified Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) and trained lifeguards. Their primary role is to ensure the safety of swimmers and respond to water-related emergencies, while also providing advanced first aid and emergency medical care as needed. They work at pools, beaches, or aquatic centers and must be able to perform rescues, administer CPR, and handle medical incidents until further help arrives. This dual certification allows them to handle a broader range of emergencies than standard lifeguards.
