PARAMEDICS

AHPRA-Registered Paramedics On-Site

For clients in remote locations, providing essential pre-hospital care is critical. FSA ensures this through AHPRA-registered paramedics, supported by fully equipped ambulances, well-stocked medical centres, and approved Clinical Practice Guidelines. Our paramedics are highly experienced, with many bringing military backgrounds or extensive standalone medical and emergency response expertise to your site.

MEDICAL GOVERNANCE

Robust Medical Governance for Safe On-Site Care

Fire and Safety Australia’s medical governance is built on guidelines from the Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care, ensuring alignment with National Safety and Quality Health Service (NSQHS) standards. Our structure breaks down clinician services by core skills and competencies, ensuring clear, accredited practices:

Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPG): Paramedics ALS & ICP
Clinical Practice Protocols (CPP): MESOs and First Responders
Primary Clinical Care Manual (PCCM): Paramedics and Nurses for remote health care

This approach eliminates ambiguity in the level of care provided, ensuring confidence and clarity for our medical director and telehealth provider when granting approvals.

TELEHEALTH

24/7 Telehealth Support for On-Site Medical Teams

FSA provides a 24/7 telehealth support network to complement our on-site Paramedics and Medical Emergency Service Officers. This service aids in approvals for administering scheduled medicines and offers second opinions for complex cases. Increasingly, clients rely on telehealth for non-urgent medical consultations and return-to-work assessments. Our specialist service, accessible via a secure tablet, allows for quick appointments, usually within 15-30 minutes. Patient consent is always obtained prior to consultations, ensuring full understanding of the terms and conditions.

POISONS PERMITS

Expert Management of Poisons Permits and Compliances

FSA is experienced in obtaining and managing poisons permits, ensuring ongoing compliance with clinical treatment guidelines for remote paramedics and nursing staff. Before mobilisation, we establish the necessary clinical governance to ensure our paramedics can effectively treat patients and administer medications on-site, supported by telemedicine and remote telehealth consultations.

Given the varying legislative requirements across states and territories, it’s crucial that the poisons permit owner fully understands and reflects these in the Clinical Practice Guidelines. Our 24/7 medical support line, staffed by Emergency Physicians and GPs, is ready to handle all urgent medical cases.
