CONSTRUCTION MEDICS

Amphibious Medics can provide medical support to your site, full time or on-call. Count on us for projects of all sizes – whether you require an on-site clinic staffed with a medic whenever your crew is present, or you want all the benefits of that same on-site clinic available on an on-call basis.

First response and employee care are always our first priority. By responding and assessing at the moment an incident occurs or at the first signs of illness, Amphibious Medics can determine the best course of action for each individual case. Unnecessary off-site treatment, workers comp claims, lost time, associated costs, and recordables can be avoided while proper necessary treatment is administered immediately. Amphibious Medics also serves as a first line of defense against fraudulent claims.

We provide all levels of construction first aid and track on-site injury and illness data with proprietary software. Our medical support team complements your existing safety department and specializes in maintaining compliance with OSHA standards 1926.23 and 1926.50 as well as conforming to Army Corps of Engineers EM385 1-1 for government projects.

Our incident-specific proprietary protocols enable our HSMTs to assess an employee’s injury, provide the needed care, and prevent an average of 90% of unnecessary recordables.

Our protocols are highly effective for these reasons:

• Written and continuously reviewed by board-certified doctors
• Compliant with OSHA 300 log recordability directives
• Include clear directives to help HSMTs proficiently render first aid and minimize urgent care visits

Social integration and open communication between our staff and our client’s team is a critical component to the success of everyone’s safety program. When your HSMT is not interacting with injured or sick employees, they are trained to actively participate in your EHS program and are available to provide collateral support for duties as requested. These duties may include site walks, filing hot work permits, I.D. badging, holding site safety orientations, conducting pre-employment drug screening, completing fire extinguisher inspections, and reviewing and finalizing insurance forms.

Amphibious Medics will coordinate with local EMS agencies to develop site-specific emergency response plans. We physically visit with local first responders to develop essential relationships that can be valuable in times of crisis. Egress routing will be conspicuously posted throughout the site. We work hand-in-hand with local medical facilities to ensure follow up care is referred and treated within the company insurance / workman's comp network. Our goal is getting employees treated, recovered, and back to work in a timely but safe manner.
