On-site medical facilities at the LNG Canada project site

The LNG Canada Project site has on-site medical facilities staffed by more than a dozen healthcare professionals and emergency response team (ERT) members that are available to project workers 24-7.

International SOS (ISOS), a global health and security services firm, operates the project’s on-site medical clinics. ISOS is trained in COVID-19 safety and screening measures as well as care for patients with the virus.

Providing professional medical care at our worksite greatly reduces the need for off-site services.

On-site resources include:

• Two nurse practitioners
• Three registered nurses
• Seven emergency response team members, of which 3 are primary care paramedics
• Three medical clinics
• Four advanced care paramedics, who provide around-the-clock medical services
• Virtual access to the physician medical director 24/7 for consultations from the nurse practitioner, when needed.

Additional resources and equipment have been introduced to manage COVID-19 prevention and care. These include:

• Isolation wings in our workforce accommodation centres where any resident with symptoms or confirmed COVID-19 infection is housed and receives services and care in seclusion from the rest of the population.
• Increased staffing of medical professionals
• On-site COVID-19 swabs for workers as directed by health authorities
• Increased supplies of medical grade oxygen
• Non-medical Personal Care Attendants to assist worker accommodation centre residents in isolation wings

Services are provided at a number of locations on site and in worker accommodation centres, providing a range of medical support services that include occupational, non-occupational and mental health support.
