On Site Medical Support

Alberta Paramedical Services is able to provide you and your company specialized onsite medical support, designed specifically for you. Having our staff on your jobsite gives you peace of mind and the best care available. We guarantee the immediate attention that you expect and deserve. We treat workers that do not need the services of a hospital, but by understanding the process of our local Emergency Services, we can also focus on expedient transfer to local departments.

Any site can need care and assistance ranging from recognizing a potential hazard to a major disaster involving several injured or trapped victims which requires full-blown Emergency Services Response and coordinating initial rescue and first aid care. We can provide this conveniently and affordably. We can also work with you to provide on-going care to workers on light duty or back to work programs to ensure they know how to regain their pre-injury status and keep disabling injuries at bay.

Audiometry Testing

Alberta Paramedical Services can administer an audiometry test which is pictorial representation, an audiogram, of hearing loss at various frequencies. The audiometry test determines a subject's hearing levels but may also measure ability to discriminate between different sound intensities, recognize pitch, or distinguished speech from background noise. Acoustic reflex and otoacoustic emissions may also be measured. Results of audiometric tests are used to diagnose hearing loss or diseases of the ear. Our Audiometry Technicians can administer the test either at your work site, or in our testing facility.

Spirometry Testing

Alberta Paramedical Services can administer a spirometry test. This is the most common of the Pulmonary Function Tests (PFTs), measuring lung function, specifically the measurement of the amount (volume) and/or speed (flow) of air that can be inhaled and exhaled. Spirometry is an important tool used for generating pneumotachographs which are helpful in assessing conditions such as asthma, pulmonary fibrosis, cystic fibrosis, and COPD. It also can be done to assess the effect of medication and measure progress in disease treatment. Our Spirometry Technicians can administer the test either at your work site, or in our testing facility.
