People with a major disability must be accompanied by an adult, since lifeguards will not be able to buy or administer drinks or food, apply suntan lotion, etc.
Adapted services are for the exclusive use of disabled people and the organization.

Family members and companions can share the shaded area with the user, as long as they do not prevent the users of the point from having the necessary space and do not hinder the work of the support staff.
The number of baths and their duration will depend on the number of people waiting and the availability of the staff providing the service.
Disabled people who, using the amphibious chair to enter and exit the water, wish to abandon it and swim autonomously will sign a commitment assuming their responsibility and exempting the City Council and the company awarded the management of the service from the possible consequences.

We work towards continuous improvement and for this reason, we monitor the facilities and user service. That is why our work is loaded with empathy so that the communication is completely personalized and the user feels satisfied with the service we provide.

RELATIONSHIP WITH USERS

The attitude of the staff must be to make easier the tasks for users.
Support staff will transfer the user to the amphibious chair, remain in the water with them, and return them to the individual chair.
At all times the monitors will maintain respectful treatment of users.
A suggestion box is made available to the user.
The support staff will be informed of the day and time, as well as the number of people who will attend the point as a group. The company will reinforce staff if necessary.

Measure the expectations and degree of satisfaction of users of the services offered through a survey, to know their opinion to develop current and future services.

GROUPS AND COLLECTIVES

To provide the best possible service to all users, it would be advisable for groups that want to use our facilities to ask before so that none of the 3 spots is saturated, and if necessary, they will be reinforced with more support personnel.
