Scope
Each hotel with an ADA lift must present & provide a proper cover and directional signage POLICY: Each hotel equipped with an ADA lift must present and provide a proper cover and directional signage. The signage must provide clear direction to the guests on the use and for obtaining assistance. An example of the proper cover and signage is provided below. PROCEDURES: The Lift (s) should be checked for operation daily when engineering verifies chemical and temperature for the pool and spa. The daily test includes checking the battery charge and that the hand-held device operates properly. When equipped with separate pool lifts for the pool and spa each should have the correct clean and functioning cover with the directional signage. When equipped with a single moveable pool lift the unit should be kept at the pool side unless there has been an in-house guest request to have it set at the spa during their stay. Battery operated lifts should have at least one back up battery available fully charged and ready for use. The pool phone should have signage providing direction for using the ADA Pool/ Spa Lift. Guests checking in should be informed of the Lifts in the pool/ spa and if they would like to utilize the units they could notify the front desk in advance and they would be prepared for use.
