Not every N95 fits every face the same way. ๐ท
Different mask shapes and sizes are exactly why fit testing matters.
A proper fit helps make sure your respirator creates the tight seal it was designed to provide.
At canaPHEM, we use quantitative testing with specialized equipment to objectively measure fit.
Need testing for:
๐ School or clinical placement
๐ฅ Healthcare work
๐ท Workplace requirements
๐ฅ Your entire team
We offer individual, group and on-site workplace testing.

Cooler weather doesnโt mean the safety planning stops. ๐
Fall events bring their own challenges โ changing temperatures, rain, slippery surfaces, earlier sunsets and unpredictable conditions.
A few things to confirm before event day:
โ๏ธ Emergency access stays clear
โ๏ธ Staff know who to contact
โ๏ธ Medical stations are easy to locate
โ๏ธ Weather is being monitored
โ๏ธ Your medical coverage matches the event risk
Save this one for your fall event planning checklist.

โCanโt we just have someone with First Aid on-site?โ
First aid support is important, but itโs not the same as professional event medical coverage.
Our Event Medics can assess and manage a wider range of medical situations, arrive equipped with AEDs and emergency supplies, and coordinate with EMS when needed.
For larger crowds, physical activities, festivals, concerts and higher-risk events, that extra level of preparedness can make a big difference.
Different events need different levels of medical coverage.

Approximately 60,000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests happen in Canada each year โ about 1 every 9 minutes.
Cardiac arrest can happen to anyone, anywhere, often without warning. Quick CPR and AED use can double a personโs chance of survival.
Being prepared can make all the difference.
Take the time to learn CPR, and make sure your workplace, school, community space or event has an AED on-site and easy to access.

MYTH: โOur event is small. We donโt need medical coverage.โ
Small event โ zero risk.
A slip and fall, allergic reaction, sudden illness or medical emergency doesnโt check your attendance numbers first.
Professional Event Medics give organizers something extremely valuable: an immediate medical response already on-site.
Big event or small event, preparedness matters.
๐ Tell us about your event and we can help determine the level of coverage you may need.
