What is a Waterpark Safety Inspection?
• A safety inspection in a waterpark is performed daily as a detailed visual check to confirm normal conditions and prevent injury or illness by noticing and correcting unsafe conditions.
• A completed safety inspection designates that the pool or waterslide is reasonably safe for guest use.
• A document that may be used as evidence in the event of an incident.
Where do we inspect?
Anywhere that guests have access to should be checked including,•Pools•Decks•Waterslides•Play structures•Stairs and handrails•Lockers•Restrooms•Waterpark Common areas
When do we inspect?
1. A formal safety inspection is performed before the facility opens in a timely fashion so that corrections can be made prior to normal opening.
2. During and after waterpark operation there should be reasonable facility surveillance performed.
3. In the event of an incident, even if it doesn’t result in injury, an inspection may be made to ensure there are no obvious deficiencies.
