Lauren Broom

Lauren Broom is the owner of Space Coast Pool School, LLC for the past 12 years. She is a PHTA® Authorized Instructor. She attended college at the University of Central Florida where she received a Bachelor of Science in Biology. She holds her Registered Sanitarian, R.S. with the National Environmental Health Association (certification in public health). Lauren has 17 years of experience in the inspection of commercial public pools in Florida as an inspector from the Florida Department of Health along with recreational waterborne disease outbreak investigations. She enjoys educating aquatic professionals on the importance of maintaining a swimming pool facility for the health and safety of their patrons.

“I loved working in public health and enjoyed helping our public pools to be safe and healthy through one-on-one education. Education and regulation go hand-in-hand rather than public health always having to be punitive and that concept should never be forgotten.”

In 2021 Lauren became an authorized OSHA trainer for the OSHA 10 in General Industry course. She was the first educational instructor to try to break the barrier by teaching this type of course in the pool industry. Her intention is to be able to teach these courses for the aquatic industry to improve workplace health and safety practices.
