Supervising Participants: The attendant monitors the number of people using the inflatable at a time, ensuring capacity limits are not exceeded and that participants follow the rules (e.g., no rough play, no sharp objects).
Safety Checks: Regularly inspecting the inflatable for any issues, such as air leaks or tears, and ensuring that it is properly secured and inflated throughout the event.
Assisting Participants: Helping younger children get on and off the inflatable safely and offering guidance on how to use the equipment properly.
Enforcing Rules:
- Ensure that participants are not standing, jumping, or climbing over the sidewalls of the inflatable.
- Make sure only one person slides down at a time to avoid collisions.
- Participants must slide down legs first in a seated position to reduce the risk of injury.
- Parents cannot accompany their kids while sliding down to prevent accidents or overcrowding.
- Absolutely no shoes allowed on the inflatable—socks are required for safety to prevent friction burns and maintain cleanliness.
First Aid Awareness: While not necessarily certified, the attendant should be aware of basic first aid steps in case of minor injuries and know the proper protocol for more serious incidents.
Maintaining Cleanliness: The attendant should keep the inflatable area clean and ensure that food, drinks, and other debris do not get onto the inflatable.
Customer Service: Being friendly, approachable, and responsive to any questions or concerns from party guests or the host.
Reading the Manufacturer's Manual: The attendant should familiarize themselves with the specific inflatable by thoroughly reading the manufacturer’s manual to understand proper setup, operation, safety precautions, and troubleshooting procedures.
Emergency Preparedness: The attendant must be aware that some inflatables are equipped with built-in emergency exits designed for quick evacuation. They should familiarize themselves with the location and operation of these exits, if available, and know how to guide participants through them in case of an emergency.
Evacuation Procedures: In case of an emergency, the attendant should be trained in how to quickly and calmly evacuate participants from the inflatable, using the designated emergency exits (if present) or other safe methods of exit.
