Answer

How do lifeguards and rescue teams respond to beach emergencies in Mallorca?

At Mallorca beaches, lifeguards are usually the first responders if someone is found in trouble in the water. They can pull a person ashore, start basic resuscitation and coordinate quickly with paramedics and other emergency services. In serious cases, speed matters, but the outcome still depends on how quickly the person is found and how severe the medical problem is.
