An All-Hazards Risk Assessment can be vital in identifying major risks and vulnerabilities

Risk assessment refers to the comprehensive process of identifying hazards, evaluating the risks associated with those hazards, and prioritizing them in relation to a specific activity, task, or job. This process takes into account both the probability or likelihood of harm occurring from exposure and the potential consequence or severity of that harm.

A risk assessment involves a detailed examination of your workplace to identify elements, situations, or processes that may pose a threat to your facilities, operations, and most importantly, your people.

Once a hazard has been identified, it should be evaluated to determine the likelihood and severity of potential harm. Based on this evaluation, appropriate measures can be established to eliminate or control the risk, ensuring a safer environment for everyone involved.

Fire Safety Plans are required by the provincial Office of the Fire Marshal to ensure the safety of occupants, property and the environment.

Our team of fire safety and prevention professionals specializes in developing site-specific fire safety plans for a wide range of organizations, from healthcare facilities to manufacturing plants. We provide comprehensive project management throughout the entire process, including the creation of plans, procedures, and technical drawings. Once the client has approved the documentation, we coordinate with the Authority Having Jurisdiction and oversee the submission and approval process until final authorization is secured. Our process includes:

• Conducting site inspections and reviewing existing fire safety plans.
• Liaising with outsourced architects and building contractors.
• Reviewing and addressing changes such as new buildings, structures, or process modifications.
• Drafting fire safety plans for all staff members.
• Producing technical drawings.
• Integrating fire safety plans with existing response plans, including fire evacuation procedures.
• Confirming the presence and adequacy of specific safety equipment such as standpipes, hose connections, fire hose cabinets, and fire extinguishers.
• Assessing fire protection systems, fire alarms, monitoring equipment, and fire panels.
• Providing training and conducting exercises as required.
• Managing plan submissions and liaising with the local fire service until final approval is obtained.

We oversee every aspect of the process to ensure timely completion and full project approval.

We give confidence to the public (Bystanders) to start patient care BEFORE 9-1-1 Emergency Services arrive; while raising money for Fundraisers and healthcare.

Everyday in Canada hundreds of people get sick or injured. Hospitals are overwhelmed and 9-1-1 response times are increasing.

As paramedics, firefighters, and police officers, we often witness crowds of bystanders standing idly during emergencies. This untapped resource has the potential to make a significant difference if individuals are empowered to provide first aid before 9-1-1 Emergency Services arrive.

The Get Ready Team has developed the Ready FIRST AIDE web app, enabling the public to access life-saving information directly on their mobile devices.

Businesses and organizations can purchase Ready FIRST AIDE through the Become a willing bystander Fundraising Programs for their staff and members. This initiative not only enhances community safety but also donates 50% of the purchase price to selected fundraisers and healthcare programs.
