Specializations and Qualifications

After a loss, your property requires special handling to ensure occupant safety and decrease business interruption. A loss goes beyond just the physical property; it impacts the wellbeing of your staff, patients, and anyone else onsite. Our years of experience in the healthcare industry, training in infection control, and attention to every detail will serve you well as we work together to restore your facility so you can continue the essential services you provide.

All First Onsite employees who are involved in healthcare projects go through rigorous training to prepare for working on a healthcare site. In addition to receiving industry training from the Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) and the CSA Group in various elements of restoration, infection control, and interim life safety measures (ILSM), our employees take part in a comprehensive internal tiered healthcare training program, which produces the most trained and experienced professionals in the industry. 

We also maintain rigid best practices in accordance with federal, provincial, territorial, and municipal health and safety legislation and regulatory agencies, so we have you covered in what matters to you the most:

INFECTION CONTROL AND PREVENTION
Critical barrier and anteroom construction, HEPA air scrubbing and negative pressurization in order to ensure that facility occupants are safe from airborne contaminants.

BIOCONTAINMENT SUPPORT
Our biosafety services are designed to provide rigorous protection and containment of biohazards, reducing the associated risks, and keeping building occupants safe.

EMERGENCY OPERATIONS PLANNING AND TRAINING
In addition to leading you through disasters when they occur, First Onsite also has experience in developing emergency response plans that help you stay ahead of unexpected events to minimize the disruption to your facility.

Our international footprint allows us to support you during events such as flooding, fire, natural disasters, or any other occurrence that causes catastrophic damage. Due to our scalability, we are able to respond with the appropriate staff, equipment, and protocols when you need it the most. 24/7/365 — we are ready to respond to your call with a commitment to safety, quality, and communication.

This program allows our work to be pre-approved so work can begin as soon as the loss happens.

  • Provide access to pre-loss resources like storm preparation tips and information sessions
