What is the purpose of the lifeguard's rescue tube?

The purpose of the lifeguard's rescue tube is to provide buoyancy during a rescue. This flotation device is designed to be thrown to someone in distress in the water, allowing them to hold onto it and stay afloat while the lifeguard executes the rescue. The buoyancy it offers can help calm a panicking swimmer and allows the lifeguard to reach them more safely and efficiently. The rescue tube supports both the lifeguard and the distressed swimmer, facilitating a safer method of rescue and minimizing the risk of drowning for both parties involved. Its design focuses on ensuring maximum safety and effectiveness when helping individuals in emergency situations in the water.
