The RID Dance

RID = Recognition, Intrusion, Distraction

"These 3 factors are why drownings occur
when a lifeguard is on duty. It is a lifeguard’s
primary responsibility to prevent injuries first
and respond to injuries second.

1. The lifeguard fails to recognize a drowning.
2. There is an intrusion on the lifeguard’s
primary responsibility of surveillance,
i.e. chemical checks or cleaning the deck.
3. The lifeguard is distracted from their
primary surveillance responsibility."
