Having a clear, comprehensive Safety Plan is essential for the successful operation of any aquatic venue. CMAHC has released a new Aquatic Safety Plan Template to help venue operators develop or update their safety protocols in alignment with the CDC’s Model Aquatic Health Code (MAHC).
This resource simplifies the process by organizing existing materials, often spread across manuals and agency documents, into one cohesive plan. It outlines emergency response procedures, training protocols, and operational standards to help aquatic staff be prepared for any situation.
The template is designed to be flexible. It can be adapted to fit the unique needs of single or multi-site venues, and it encourages collaboration among all safety team members. As a living document, it should evolve alongside your aquatic venue’s operations and team structure.
