Operations Manager Nick Gillespie commented: “We are very grateful to Poole Runners and I’m delighted with the purchase of the Pool Extraction Board. Incidents in the swimming pool are extremely rare, but this equipment provides signifi cantly faster rescue times, improved safety and reduces the demands on staff during any potential spinal injury.”
The innovative safety equipment requires just two trained users to carry out a rescue for deck level pools. A rescue using the new Pool Extraction Board can be accomplished in as little as 90 seconds.
