15 Safety and Supervisory Standards To ensure the safety of residents swimming in City pools, certain supervisory standards will be enforced when you visit recreational facilities. The standards apply to pool swim sessions only they do not apply to swimming lessons or to wading pools. Parents/guardians with younger children are encouraged to view the Wading Pool Safety and Admission Requirements where the standards are different. PLEASE NOTE: If you are unsure of how these requirements apply to you and your family, please contact your facility of choice BEFORE your visit. In order to ensure adequate supervision and to identify children at greater risk, the City of Ottawa is issuing wristbands during swim sessions. All Children 7 years of age and under, regardless of swimming ability, must be directly supervised (within arms reach) by a responsible person 16 years of age or older. Children 10 years of age and under who are non-swimmers or who cannot pass the facility swim test must be directly supervised (close proximity and able to render assistance) by a responsible person 16 years of age or older. Non-swimmers and those who cannot pass the facility swim test must remain in shallow water. Each ratio below indicates the maximum number of children that one responsible person would be able to supervise. For example: Children 5 years of age and under: maximum 2 children per responsible person 16 years of age and older. The person responsible must be in the water and within arm s reach. This person may not have any additional children under their care unless the other children are at least 8 years of age and are able to pass the facility swim test. Users of City facilities are personally responsible for ensuring that they are fit to participate in physical activities. Anyone with a condition affecting his/her ability to participate must take appropriate safety precautions to ensure his/her own safety and is encouraged to be accompanied by an adult who is knowledgeable about their condition. Facility Swim Test: Participant must be able to demonstrate comfort in the water and swim 25 meters in shallow water without assistance or a lifejacket. Participant must complete the entire distance, swim continuously without stopping to rest, show strong forward movement and ability to take breaths and not touch the bottom of the pool. Responsible Person: Child(ren) must be accompanied by a parent, guardian or designated caregiver who is 16 years of age or older, responsible for the direct supervision of the child, in bathing attire and with the child at all times, both in and out of the water.
