HO HO… Oh no! Christmas party medical standby


'Tis the season for “Holiday Party Mode” which means companies and Calgary will be gearing up for some berry Christmas sangrias and those hard-to-resist eggnog rums. 

But while Christmas wouldn’t feel like Christmas without a jolly shindig or two… Or three, don’t forget that accidents do happen.

This month, Medical Standby Coordinator Ali Vanderveen chats about hosting your special bash minus the safety risks.
 
“If you know you’ve got at least 50-plus people attending your event, consider using medical standby to cover your business’s liability,” Ali explains.

Whether it’s taking a spill by the insta-snow powder or consuming too much to drink – having a first aid station and qualified personnel on hand gets the situation under control promptly.

“No one wants to anticipate what could go wrong with friends, family or coworkers – however onsite medical standby is a sure way to ensure the wellbeing of your guests,” she says.

So what about those larger-sized parties, say of 20,000 people? AHASTI’s got that covered too.

Our medical teams are built by your specific party needs and include: Emergency Medical Technicians, Emergency Medical Responders and certified First Aid and CPR professionals.
 
“Think of us as an ambulance without wheels… 

We’ve got the training and equipment to handle any type of emergency and can seek backup whenever required,” Ali elaborates.

Of course, the perk of hosting a celebration with a bonafide bartender— and medical standby – is that you can enjoy the party! Without over-worry about every little spill or the welfare of each guest.

Feel free to inquire about AHASTI medical standby by emailing or calling Ali at: avanderveen@safetyed.ca, 403-875-1914.

We’d be happy to serve your safety requirements for any occasion. Merry holidays!
