Deploy a medical team and an on-site helicopter to optimize your operations
In the mining industry, where isolation and extreme conditions are the norm, worker health and safety are top priorities. A medical emergency can escalate quickly if access to care is limited. This is where Airmedic comes in, offering a customized air medical solution with an on-site helicopter, directly at the location.
The Challenges of Isolated Mining Camps
Mining sites in Quebec are often located in remote regions, inaccessible by road and far from medical infrastructure. This presents several critical challenges:
• Limited access to medical care in case of an accident or serious illness.
• Prolonged evacuation delays, endangering workers’ lives.
• Operational suspensions, leading to significant financial losses.
In this context, a fast and efficient intervention is essential to prevent complications and ensure operational continuity without compromising employee safety.
