Primary Care Paramedic

Alberta Health Services

Emergency Health Services - Alberta (EHS) offers a career that supports your lifestyle while providing meaningful opportunities for professional growth and development. By joining EHS, you become part of a high-performing and supportive team committed to exceptional patient care. In addition to competitive compensation and flexible benefits, a Remote Retention Allowance is currently in place, to a maximum of $3,000 annually. This non-pensionable allowance is paid on an hourly basis for all hours worked at the basic rate of pay. Location: Based out of the Grande Prairie Hub, this position supports service delivery across Grande Prairie, Beaverlodge, Fox Creek, Grande Cache, Spirit River, and Valleyview. Staff have the opportunity to choose shifts at any of these sites based on availability. To ensure your qualifications are fully recognized during the screening process, please submit a chronological resume and cover letter in PDF format, along with copies of any job-related credentials. Candidate information may be shared with EHS Operations hiring teams within the province for recruitment purposes only.

As a Primary Care Paramedic (PCP), you will assess emergency scenes and patients and may transport ill or injured patients from emergency scenes and between facilities. This includes operating ambulances or other modes of transportation. You may treat patients by administering minor medications, using basic life support (BLS) airway adjuncts, and providing semi-automated defibrillation. You may also lead the BLS crew in delivering clinical care during patient transport or at emergency scenes. You will assist with ensuring that ambulances or other transport vehicles, including non-emergent transport (NET) units, are properly stocked and equipped in accordance with established standards. The working environment for a PCP is demanding and includes exposure to heat, cold, rain, snow, wind, moving traffic, and industrial and agricultural equipment. You will be required to travel in all weather conditions and to remote locations (e.g., backcountry), with exposure to hazardous and graphic scenes and direct exposure to bodily fluids. The PCP role is physically demanding. You must be able to endure frequent lifting and carrying of up to 105 lbs while transporting and transferring patients, supplies, and equipment. You must also be able to endure frequent, simultaneous kneeling and trunk flexion for extended periods. Additionally, you must stand and sit for extended periods, as well as bend, twist, side-carry up to 20 lbs in each hand, and assume awkward positions.
