Under health and Safety risk assessment the lifeguard waited until the pool was evacuated then drained to a depth of no more than one foot in depth so he could wade in and effect a recovery - unfortunately by this time the man had drowned.

Emergency Services -On Stand By - that means standing by and filling in a risk assessment form.
Note : lifebelts may only be thrown by people trained for this task.
