On-site Treatment for Employees

When an employee becomes ill or injured at work, what should happen next: Should the employee go to the emergency room? Or should the employee "wait and see" if the pain goes away?

By having an on-site clinic at the worksite, Frontline Medical professionals are able to assess and treat employee injuries immediately. This early intervention helps avoid unnecessary and costly off-site treatment and helps provide necessary treatment sooner.  This allows the employees health outcome to improve faster, thus allowing the  employee to return to productive work faster. Workers' comp claims and associated medical costs significantly decrease.

With a broadened scope of service, Frontline Medical can provide for many general health needs of employees. Properly supervised by a doctor and supported with Frontline Medical’s guidelines, our personnel provide a convenient and cost-effective service.

Employees can receive care for acute illnesses, including strep throat, ear infections, colds, minor orthopedic injuries, and minor infections. In addition, Frontline Medical will perform minor diagnostic and treatment procedures. Frontline Medical also provides Advanced Cardiac Life Support services on-site. We will provide Automatic External Defibrillators (AED) to three locations in camp.

Special Operations

Special Tasks
Each client that Frontline Medical serves poses challenges that require special skills and resources. Wildland Fire support requires specially trained personnel to work directly on a fireline. Disaster support requires extreme adaptability. On occasion, Frontline Medical is called to respond to life-threatening situations. Our clients can rest assured, all Frontline Medical personnel have extensive rescue and clinical experience. While some operations appear more dramatic than others, in a very real sense, all of our services are special operations.

Special Staff
A very large percentage of Frontline Medical personnel serve on volunteer fire and rescue departments; many regularly work in hospital emergency departments. Some are assigned to FEMA, state, and county response teams. Some have worked on special teams assigned to build clinics in other countries.

Frontline Medical personnel represent the best characteristics of skilled, caring professionals who treat every patient, each client, and all operations with the professionalism deserved.
