The Importance of Workplace First Aid

Being prepared for an emergency is crucial when working in a field with the potential for unexpected accidents. Having a workplace first aid station on-site will decrease the costs and time of sending employees off-site to have injuries fixed. These stations provide everything from splints to life-saving measures, along with the presence of medical professionals. The safety and efficiency of your operation matters to the medical staff at MMC.

Our services will protect your business and its bottom line by being proactive and providing experienced medical staff on your work site. If an emergency arises, the first aid station is a fraction of the cost of outsourcing medical care. Even if an emergency doesn't occur, providing proactive healthcare will put your employees' minds at ease. First aid clinics are also proven to reduce OSHA recordables and improve contractor's Experience Modification Rate (EMR).

The Difference Between On-site Clinics and MMC's Other Services

MMC provides a wide range of on-site services, so what makes first aid stations different? With decades in the field, we've learned how the impact an injury can have on day-to-day operation. With a first-aid clinic, a trained medical professional will always be there during your operating hours which can be a very valuable asset!

You can set the time you want our staff on your site, including nights and weekends, so they can act as the first responders in emergencies. Most sites are far from hospitals, so if something were to happen, it would take a significant amount of time for them to get to the location and stabilize the patient. With a first aid station, they will be there in minutes with their equipment to assess the situation.

Choosing the Best Clinic for You

Mobile Medical's team is qualified for triage situations and other health services that focus on your employees' physical and mental health. You can mold the services of the first aid station to best cater to your specific job. MMC representatives can work with you and help determine the best services for your situation.

Your on-site workplace first aid station could include the following:

  • Medical staff, including a Medical Director and on-site management
  • Basic life support capabilities
  • First aid and general health services
  • Mental health and wellness support to enhance on-site productivity and safety
  • Substance abuse and testing for your employees

ALS vs. BLS

Our clinicians are qualified to provide both basic life support (BLS) and advanced life support (ALS) services. Standard onsite services include basic life support. However, the following variables should be considered when taking into consideration whether advanced life support services may be beneficial for your project:

  • Location of job site
  • Emergency response time
  • Possible severity of injuries/incidents
  • Cost differential of BLS/ALS

MMC's on-site management team will work with you to determine and customize the best care scenario for your project.
