them, emergencies do occur. When they do, they require quick, correct and decisive responses.

adhere to these guidelines.

• Prevention strategies
• Emergency preparedness
• Administrative response to emergencies
• Field response to incidents/accidents and fatalities

8.1 Prevention Strategies
Urban Air Trampoline Park attracts many participants each year. Injuries and other emergency situations
are likely to occur. Prevention should be a top goal of each Urban Air Trampoline Park employee.
Therefore, it is imperative that the Urban Air Trampoline Park staff keep each activity as safe as possible.
To prevent injuries and emergencies staff should be vigilant in enforcing the rules for each attraction.
Most injuries occur when patrons violate the assigned rules for the facility and/or each attraction.
Facility rules include but are not limited to no running, restrictions on chewing gum on an attraction, or
no climbing, etc. Attraction rules include enforcing restrictions on a patron's age, weight, height, etc.
Attraction rules include how the attraction is used by the patrons for example; wearing a harness,
restricted number of persons on a trampoline, similarly aged and sized persons on dodgeball court, etc.
Staff who speak up and prevent a patron from engaging in behavior that violates facility rules will be
doing their part in preventing injuries or fatal accidents.
