Paragraph 193 of the HSE publication “Managing Health and Safety in Swimming Pools” states: 
"Whenever the pool is in use, a member of staff will need to be designated as “on call” to respond immediately to the alarm and deal with any emergency. It is essential that such staff are trained in pool rescue, CPR techniques and first aid."

The Emergency Response Pool qualification is designed to assist operators to meet these requirements. The Emergency Response Programme is also designed to train ancillary staff to back up and support the lifeguard team (if available) and staff to respond to an emergency. To comply with the HSE publication ‘Managing Health and Safety in Swimming Pools’, pool operators are strongly recommended to refer to figure 3 on page 66, to determine if continuous or occasional poolside supervision is required.

The ER-Pool is a responder qualification designed to train ancillary staff to respond to a swimming pool emergency once the alarm has been raised. ER Pool is designed for small pools no greater than 1.5m in depth such as health club or hotel pool.
