On Site First Aid

An on site, professionally staffed first aid medical trailer presents a cost effective opportunity for construction sites. Prompt medical care for work related injuries helps control worker’s comp claims and facilitates an early return to work.

An On Site First Aid Fully Equipped Medical Trailer Placed Directly on Project Site Offers Many Benefits

• Provides for the availability of a first response medical professional in the event of a serious accident to immediately perform treatment and stabilization of the injured worker while awaiting an ambulance. This response time can be critical to a seriously ill or injured worker.
• In the case of minor injuries, workers are treated with on-site first aid and, in most cases, returned to work in less than 30 minutes. This eliminates the need to send the worker off site, along with someone to accompany him, to a medical facility for treatment.
• Assessing a more acute injury in the trailer immediately after occurrence helps guard against treatment fraud.
• Previously injured or returning workers receive most of their follow-up treatment on-site without having to return to a hospital or medical facility.
• The majority of workers feel good about having an on site first aid facility available to them. They feel comfortable stopping by with a minor ache or pain, or just to have their blood pressure checked. This availability of service also helps in the initial reporting of accidents.
• Every injury treated by our medical professionals is entered in our reporting database. This system was created to assist the owner and contractor in accident investigation and provides the necessary information for tracking injuries and detecting potential injury patterns.
• The availability of a first aid on-site trailer and medical staff beyond regular business hours provides for significant savings in contrast to using off-site emergency room services for evening and weekend work injuries.
