The Ministry of Health established the protocol for the use of swimming pools that apply to
swimming pools for collective use open to the public, such as those in vacation and recreational centers, schools, entities or associations, hotels, motels or similar; swimming pools for restricted use, located in private clubs, condominiums or residential complexes; swimming pools owned by a single dwelling or others for special use.

The first thing that the health portfolio notices is that the places must have the necessary infrastructure to apply the established measures or the service will not be able to be enabled.
Regarding the facilities, it is made to eliminate, suppress or deactivate the accesses that require contact, such as pins, fingerprint recognition and / or turnstiles, and where possible, differentiate an entrance door and an exit door. In addition, the
use of water sources is prohibited.
Additionally, the capacity will be determined according to the total capacity of the pool and whether it is indoors or outdoors. (In the resolution you will find the table to determine the capacity).

In measures for workers, it is noted that swimming instructors must wear face masks, masks or any element of facial protection that allows the development of activities and users must permanently wear the mask, covering the nose and mouth. When entering the water, it must be stored in a bag, to be used again when leaving the pool.
In addition, they should shower quickly, preferably in areas
external.
Measures for the user:
– Use the mask permanently covering the nose and mouth. When entering the water, the mask should be kept in a bag, to be used again once the person is out of the water.
– Maintain the physical distance of two meters between person and person different from their family group, especially in places and areas marked to line up.
