But that\u2019s the stark reality for people like Kapua Chang, whose days are always a success when no one under her watchful eye is injured and everyone makes it home alive.<\/p>\n<p>Chang is a lifeguard with the city \u2014 one of approximately 270 dedicated employees who bravely patrol beaches from 43 lifeguard towers around O\u2018ahu. In her role, she must be ready to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation and other life-saving measures on beachgoers at a moment\u2019s notice. This duty includes pulling swimmers from pummeling shore breaks and treacherous ocean currents, too. <\/p>\n<p>But Chang is also unique among Honolulu\u2019s lifeguards in that she is the first and only female rescue watercraft operator in the state. It\u2019s a distinction she\u2019s held since graduating from the city\u2019s Ocean Safety Rescue Operator program\u200b in December. In the aftermath, she has naturally attracted her share of attention, particularly among young female admirers hoping to follow in her uplifting wake. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy goal is to help inspire more women to try out and become a part of the team\u200b,\u201d says Chang, whose responsibility within the rescue watercraft program involves patrolling waters up to a mile offshore and responding to emergency calls from overturned vessels and surfers in distress.\u200b\u00a0\u201cI\u2019ve noticed a few of the women are more interested in applying for the position and having them join\u00a0the program would be greatly beneficial.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She pauses briefly before adding, \u201cTo be on a Jet Ski and to see young girls look up and smile and wave at you, well, that just makes my day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Of course, her days would be so much better if people would simply heed her or any other lifeguard\u2019s advice. From her experience, the biggest obstacle is dealing with ill-prepared tourists, who at times complicate matters by refusing to follow the signs and verbal warnings.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey aren\u2019t given the proper guidance,\u201d observes Chang, \u201cso when they come to a beach, they\u2019re not given a video intro of the basic warnings they need to know. And when they spend all this money to come to the islands and enjoy beautiful Hawai\u2018i, and we\u2019re telling them, \u2018No, you can\u2019t go in that water,\u2019 and it looks completely flat and beautiful to them at that moment, they\u2019re usually like, \u2018Why? Who are you? And why are you telling me I can\u2019t go in?\u2019 <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe next second, they\u2019re jumping in the water and a massive set rolls in, and then they\u2019re just blindsided by it.\u201d<br \/>\nOn most days, Chang and her \u200bf\u200bellow lifeguards must deal with a variety of medical incidents \u2014 everything from asthma attacks to beachgoers stepping on sea urchins or being struck by\u200b a surfboard. On other days, it\u2019s a bit more intense where \u201cwe\u2019re\u200b constantly\u00a0running in and out of the water, and we\u2019re never really dry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Those occasions can be fraught with more serious consequences \u2014 broken limbs, dislocated shoulders and even spinal injuries. At worst, there are Condition 5 episodes in which a swimmer is pulled from the water and is unresponsive.<br \/>\nSuch experiences can be taxing on a lifeguard\u2019s heart and mind.\u200b\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s just a part of the job,\u201d says Chang about statewide drownings, which average about 40 annually. \u201cYou\u2019ve got to have tough skin to be able to do something like this. And when a Condition 5 happens, you just have to trust your skills and your ability to get somebody in (the watercraft) and out of the water and then perform the proper medical attention that your patient needs, just so that hopefully they can go home safely to their family.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Chang is a relative newcomer to the world of lifeguarding, having joined the force in the summer of 2021. Prior to that, she held a job at Kualoa Ranch \u201crunning the ATV tours and working at Secret Island.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But once she determined her future rested in protecting people in aquatic environments, the sea became the limit.<br \/>\n\u201cAs soon as I became a lifeguard, this (rescue watercraft operator) was my goal,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n<p>Currently stationed in District 1 (Honolulu), Chang finds inspiration in past and current watermen and waterwomen. She credits Rell Sunn, a pioneer in the world of women\u2019s surfing who died in 1998, and veteran lifeguards Terry Ahue and Brian Keaulana, as among those who have motivated her to join the lifeguard ranks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRell was one of the prominent females to come through the program. I wish I could have met her, and it makes me sad to not have really gotten that chance to work with her. But it\u2019s an honor to know that we, as Hawaiian women who worked ocean safety, worked our butts off trying to set a path for females,\u201d Chang says.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd Uncle Terry and Uncle Brian are the guys who started up the program of rescue operator and they\u2019re the top guys that have set the legacy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think being born and raised here, it brings me pride and great happiness to be able to help my people and to still remain connected to the ocean while I\u2019m serving the public as a lifeguard,\u201d she continues. \u201cThere\u2019s a huge responsibility being a part of ocean safety, especially here in Hawai\u2018i, because there are so many incredible legends that have put this program to where it is now.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m just trying to follow in their footsteps.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Although she was raised in the beach town of L\u0101\u2018ie, Chang wasn\u2019t by any stretch of the imagination a water enthusiast. In fact, when she unexpectedly chose to try out in the eighth grade for the Kahuku  High and Intermediate School water polo team, she was literally \u201cthrown into the deep end\u201d of the pool and told to guard the net.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI grew up going to the beach, but I was not a swimmer \u2014 I had to build my swimming ability,\u201d explains the 29-year-old Chang, the eldest of three girls (and one older foster brother) born to Raquel and Kai-O Chang. \u201cIt wasn\u2019t like my immediate family were big-wave surfers or swimmers or whatnot. I had to learn a lot of it on my own, and the prominent watermen in my family had either passed away or were living off island.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Despite the early struggles in water polo, Chang persevered. Along the way, she discovered that she had \u201ca great arm,\u201d and by her senior year at Kahuku High, she turned into an all-state goalie. That led to a collegiate career in women\u2019s water polo \u2014 first with Riverside City College in California and later with University of Hawai\u2018i at M\u0101noa, where she earned her degree in Hawaiian Studies.<\/p>\n<p>Still, being an accomplished college water polo player didn\u2019t necessarily turn her into a capable lifeguard.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s a big difference. I mean yeah, you can be a great water polo player, but you\u2019re in a pool and you\u2019re not dealing with these other aspects, like being caught in a current and understanding the wind, the swells and the tides, and just knowing how a wave and sets work,\u201d she explains.<\/p>\n<p>These days, Chang shoulders \u201ca heavy responsibility\u201d as a role model for young, hopeful women intent on joining her as a rescue watercraft operator. She certainly doesn\u2019t take her job lightly and believes it\u2019s her obligation \u201cto continue proving myself\u201d and \u201cstrive to be better.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve been given so much from my \u2018ohana and my community that it\u2019s only fitting that I continue to give back by protecting and serving the public,\u201d she says. \u201cWhenever I have had to perform a rescue or help with a medical, it feels good going home afterward and knowing that I did something good for the day.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Not everyone wakes up each work day knowing their job is a matter of life and death.
