The Carson Valley Swim Center has been awarded the Loss Control Excellence Program Award for its demonstration of excellence in risk management and commitment to the health, safety, and welfare of its staff and the public it serves.
The award can only be achieved after a rigorous and comprehensive review of an entity’s policy and procedures which shows adherence to risk management best practices. The review is conducted through an independent audit by professional risk experts.
This year’s award includes a recognition plaque featuring the photography of local artist, Vivian Powers, in addition to a grant check for $3,200. The grant is to help continue and further the swim center’s safety and public service management.
Director Shannon Harris and Human Resources Director Sharon Thompson were involved throughout the audit process.
“The management staff at (the center) is constantly striving to make sure that our programs and policies are the best they can be for the benefit of our staff and citizens we serve,” Harris said. “Going through POOL/PACT’s rigorous Loss Control Excellence Program audit confirmed that in most areas we were. We did adopt and modify our polices where needed. On behalf of our staff, we are honored to accept this award. The team that achieved this success worked extremely hard.”
Board Chairman Frank Dressel said the organization is proud to be recognized by the auditors.
“We are proud to be recognized by POOL/PACT for this important honor, in addition to the grant and commemorative artwork reminder.”
