Is Your Lifeguard Rescue Tube A Biohazard?
Is your Lifeguard Rescue Tube a BIOHAZARD? According to a just released article from Lifeguard TV®, the answer is yes. In the videos a Lifeguard Instructor points out the obvious dangers of using the old style vinyl rescue tubes especially once they have been compromised by a small split or crack. The tubes become a BIOHAZARD when exposed to vomit, blood or other bodily fluids. The Lifeguard Instructor also notes the fact that most drownings involve some sort of vomiting or secretion of bodily fluids.
The new LIFE™ Rescue Tube is not porous like the old style vinyl rescue tubes and thus not susceptible to these dangers.
