“Based on staff interviews, staff failed to ensure care, protection, and guidance when a child was rescued by the public at the pool. Evidence: On 08/08/2022 child #1 had to be removed from the water by a public attendee at the pool. The child was calling for help, floating on their back in the pool in an area where the water was too deep. The child's paperwork for pool use indicates that the child is a beginner. The child should not leave the shallow end and should not be in water above their shoulders. After the child was helped to the side of the pool by the community member that first heard him calling for help and the camp counselor that was closest to him, local emergency personnel were called to assist with care and transported the child to the hospital. At the time of the incident 3 camp staff members were present at the pool, but not watching the child.”
