What is first aid?

A First Aid job involves providing immediate medical assistance to individuals suffering from injuries or sudden illnesses before professional medical help arrives. Responsibilities may include assessing the situation, performing CPR, treating wounds, and ensuring patient comfort. First aid responders work in various environments such as workplaces, schools, sports events, and emergency services. Training and certification in first aid and CPR are often required for these roles.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in first aid?

To excel in a First Aid role, you need a solid understanding of emergency medical response, injury assessment, and basic life-saving techniques, typically supported by a recognized first aid certification such as from the Red Cross or St John Ambulance. Familiarity with first aid kits, automated external defibrillators (AEDs), and incident reporting systems is crucial. Strong communication, calmness under pressure, and the ability to reassure and direct others are vital soft skills. These competencies ensure that you can provide effective and timely assistance during emergencies, improving outcomes and maintaining workplace safety.

What types of situations might I encounter on a daily basis in a first aid role?

In a First Aid position, you may handle a wide range of incidents, from minor injuries such as cuts, sprains, or burns to more serious emergencies like allergic reactions, asthma attacks, or cardiac events. Your day-to-day responsibilities often include monitoring the safety of your environment, conducting first aid assessments, providing immediate care, and accurately documenting all incidents. You’ll frequently communicate with coworkers, supervisors, and external emergency services to coordinate further medical help when needed. The work can be fast-paced, requiring you to remain calm, make quick decisions, and offer reassurance to individuals in distress.

Do you get paid to be a first aider?

First aiders are typically volunteers or employees who provide emergency assistance; whether they get paid depends on the setting. In some workplaces or organizations, first aiders may receive compensation or stipends, while in others, they volunteer without pay. Certification in first aid and CPR is often required regardless of payment status.

Is a first aid certification worth it?

First Aid certification is valuable for many jobs, especially those in healthcare, education, and safety roles, as it demonstrates the ability to respond effectively to emergencies. It also provides essential skills that can be useful in everyday situations and is often a job requirement or preferred qualification. Maintaining certification through regular training ensures skills stay current and reliable.

Job description

At International SOS, we are in the business of protecting and saving lives. For 40 years, we have delivered customised security risk management, health, and wellbeing solutions to organisations worldwide. With a presence in 90 countries and a team of nearly 13,000 experts, we provide 24/7 support to help organisations fulfil their Duty of Care responsibilities.

Now, we're looking for talented individuals to join our team and make a difference.

The Package

Imagine a schedule that gives you true work-life balance: choose from fly-in/fly-out rotations of 2 weeks on/2 weeks off or 3 weeks on/3 weeks off. That means you'll work only half the year-while earning a full year's pay.

Leave the stress behind-we've got your essentials covered. From comfortable accommodations to delicious meals, everything is taken care of while you're on-site with us.

And because flexibility matters, we offer travel perks: whether it's reimbursement, allowances, or free charter flights, you can live anywhere in Canada and still work in the province of your choice. This isn't just a job-it's a lifestyle designed around freedom, balance, and opportunity.

What's in It for You?
  • Comprehensive Benefits: Health, vision, and dental coverage, plus emergency travel assistance, virtual care, life insurance, long-term disability, and an employee assistance program.
  • Retention Bonus: Your commitment pays off-literally.
  • All Gear Provided: Uniforms and PPE supplied for client sites, so you're ready from day one.
  • Grow Your Career: Access to continuing education and professional development opportunities.
  • Earn More Through Referrals: Bring great people on board and get rewarded.
Your Mission

As an Advanced First Aid Attendant, you are the first line of response in medical emergencies, delivering timely and effective care while ensuring patient safety and comfort.

With a strong focus on professionalism, infection control, and continuous learning, you play a vital role in supporting health and safety in dynamic work environments.

How You'll Contribute

As an Advanced First Aid Attendant, your quick thinking and care make a real difference-providing lifesaving first aid and ensuring readiness for any emergency:

  • Deliver effective emergency response while maintaining provincial standards and International SOS procedures.
  • Provide professional, customer-focused care in every patient interaction.
  • Keep medical equipment and transport vehicles ready 24/7 for immediate deployment.

  • Monitor equipment health, maintain inventories, and ensure all stock and PPE are available and in-date.
  • Uphold strict infection control practices to protect patients and colleagues.
  • Maintain accurate, timely patient records and prepare reports as needed.
  • Engage in scheduled meetings, committees, and working groups to drive continuous improvement.
