Alberta First Aid Room Compliance FAQ
Which businesses are required to have a First Aid Room in Alberta?
Under Alberta OHS Code Part 11 and Schedule 2 (Tables 5-7), the requirement for a dedicated First Aid Room (or "designated area for first aid services") depends on your workplace hazard rating (Low, Medium, or High), the number of workers per shift, and the travel time to a health care facility (Close, Distant, or Isolated). Generally, large workforces or high-hazard sites located further from medical care will trigger the requirement for a fully equipped First Aid Room.
What are the physical facility and furnishing requirements for an Alberta First Aid Room?
According to Schedule 2, Table 4 of the OHS Code, the room must be of adequate size, easily accessible, close to bathroom facilities, and able to accommodate a stretcher. It must be equipped with adequate lighting, heating, ventilation, a communication system, a permanently installed sink with hot and cold potable running water, a cot/bed with a moisture-protected mattress, 2 pillows, 6 towels, 3 blankets, and eye wash equipment.
What supplies and diagnostic instruments are required in an Alberta First Aid Room?
The room must contain the baseline supplies of a CSA Standard Z1220-17 Type 2 Basic Medium First Aid Kit. In addition to this, the room must have advanced equipment including a portable oxygen therapy unit, a sphygmomanometer (blood pressure cuff), stethoscope, spine board with straps, cervical collars, a stretcher, splints, hot/cold packs, bandage scissors, and a space blanket.
Who must be in charge of an Alberta First Aid Room?
The Alberta OHS Code dictates that a First Aid Room must be clearly identified and placed under the supervision of an advanced first aider or an advanced care paramedic. The room must be used solely to administer first aid or health-related services.
Can I reorder individual supplies to restock my First Aid Room?
Yes. We offer individual replacement items, from oxygen therapy accessories to specialized diagnostic tools, to ensure your Alberta First Aid Room remains fully compliant and ready for emergency response at all times.
