ARC

We are unable to attend events that do not fit within our mandate! This is largely due to our agreement with Emergency Health Services Alberta (Formerly known as Alberta Health Services EMS) as part of our agreement for recieving assistance with our Medical Direction. If you have any questions, you are welcome to contact us and we can discuss options, or make some recommondations to other services who will be able to assist you.

All the events we assist have different needs. At a minimum you can expect: x1 Advanced Care Paramedic (ACP)x1 Primary Care Paramedic (PCP)We have a great team moral and generally field more than our minimum at events. For example, smaller events can anticipate having a minimum of 4 providers and we are able to have 10+ volunteers at larger events. Our Volunteer teams consist of Advanced Care Paramedics (ACP), Primary Care Paramedics (PCP), Emergency Medical Responders (EMR), Registered Nurses (RN), Licensed Practical Nurses (LPN) and Medical First Responders (MFR). We even have oppertunities for Students and First Aiders to join us to learn more about our team and help out with community events as assistants to our volunteers!

Yes. We expect that our volunteers will not have to pay money to attend your event. We bring our volunteers and all the appropriate gear to your event. Prior to us agreeing to volunteer at your event there will be a discussion on the following: ParkingFood VouchersLodging (If applicable)Supply Usage* You will not be paying for any of our volunteers time. For perspective, our members are working proffesionals and generally make 50.00/hourly. We are able to remove this related cost to our service by ensuring our volunteers needs are met. You can read more about Paramedic and Nursing wage expectations by clicking on the links. Additionally, as proud members of the Alberta MFR program, we are able to save additional costs when looking into Medical Direction. *If your event takes place over multiple days please let us know. We may be required to organize lodging for our volunteers.
