First Aid Attendant Camp

Become part of a team that is passionate about ensuring people in even the most remote, rural locations receive access to quality medical support. At Trojan Safety, we’re looking for resourceful first-aid camp attendants who abide by proper safety procedures and show care to all employees and clients in a respectful and supportive manner.

Established in 1994, Trojan Safety has been a leader in industrial safety, offering expertise in health, safety, and environmental services within the Oil and Gas, Mining, Pulp and Paper, Forestry, and Construction sectors throughout Western Canada.

As an industrial first aid attendant residing in a camp, your primary responsibility is to offer immediate medical care and emergency response to crew members facing injuries, illnesses, or any urgent health concerns. You must be available at all times to provide efficient and compassionate handling of all medical emergencies within the remote camp should an accident occur.

The industrial first aid camp attendant’s tasks include, but are not limited to:

• Keeping up with all protocols of Advanced First Aid;
• Obeying and following first aid protocols set out by ruling government agencies;
• Collecting and maintaining confidential information, such as patient medical information;
• Providing first aid to workers when injured or ill within your scope of practice (OFA3, EMR, PCP);
• Making transport decisions of injured workers to health care facilities;
• Familiarizing oneself with WCB documentation, OH&S regulations and all pertinent first aid reports;
• Maintaining proper head count of personnel on location;
• Being an active participant in all safety meetings;
• Ensuring that all personnel on location have proper documentation;
• Following all health and safety rules;
• Operating company vehicles and using company equipment in a safe and appropriate manner.

Industrial first aid camp attendants will be living and working in close proximity to crews and must maintain an air of “friendly professionalism.” They must also show the following character traits:

• Confidence;
• Responsibility;
• Practicality;
• Relatability;
• Safety conscience;
• Calmness in emergencies;
• Ability to direct workers in the event of a medical emergency;
• Strong and clear communication skills;
• Strong leadership skills;
• Effective problem-solving and decision-making skills based on tried and true safety protocols.

Due to the nature of the position, an industrial first aid camp attendant must:

• Posses and maintain a reasonable level of fitness;
• Be able to work long hours, work many consecutive shifts, both day and night shift;
• Have good observational skills;
• Have normal colour vision, as many safety systems are colour-coded.

• Possess a valid driver’s licence (class
  5) and current (within three months) clean driver abstract
• Possess valid EGSO (enform)
• Possess valid H2S
• Possess valid WHMIS (we can provide this training if needed)
• Possess valid TDG (we can provide this training if needed)
• Possess valid BLS
• Possess Current Provincial Governing Body Registration

In addition to these industry-related safety certifications, candidates must be able to pass a pre-employment drug test as this is a safety-sensitive position.

The following values are at the heart of everything we do.

Having a team that genuinely wants to help others is what we are all about—it’s why we love the safety business. We want to surround ourselves with people who take pride in going the extra mile and demonstrate courtesy, gratitude and humility.

It’s about respect. On-time means you show up early and are ready to go before the promised start time. People notice when you’re on time, and they definitely notice when you’re late. Being on time is a key factor in building trust with our clients and co-workers. Let’s never violate that trust.

We live for great relationships, and in order to build those relationships, we consistently give more of ourselves than we ask of others. We inherently believe in putting our clients and colleagues first— it’s just the way we operate. We like people, we like having fun, and we love a good sense of humour, and it shows.
