By providing immediate care for workplace injuries directly on-site, QuickCare's First-Aid Response minimizes the severity of incidents, reducing the likelihood of them being classified as OSHA recordable. Our trained professionals deliver prompt medical attention, often preventing the need for hospital visits that would trigger recordable status. This proactive approach not only keeps employees safer but also helps companies maintain better safety records and avoid potential regulatory issues.

QuickCare offers a comprehensive range of drug and alcohol testing services specifically designed for construction sites, including:

Rapid Point of Care Testing (POCT) - Providing results within minutes
DOT-compliant testing - Meeting all Department of Transportation requirements
Laboratory-based testing - For increased accuracy and expanded panel options
Testing types - Pre-employment, random, post-accident, and reasonable suspicion
Testing methods - Urine, oral fluid, hair, and breath alcohol testing

All testing is conducted by certified professionals and is available 24/7 directly at your construction site, minimizing disruption to operations.

According to OSHA regulations, construction workers who use tight-fitting respirators must undergo fit testing:

Initially - Before first use of the respirator
Annually - At least once every 12 months thereafter
When changes occur - Whenever there are changes in the employee's physical condition that could affect respirator fit (such as significant weight change, dental work, facial surgery, or scarring)
When changing respirator models - If a different respirator type or model is used

QuickCare's Mobile Respirator Fit-Testing service makes it convenient to stay compliant with these requirements by coming directly to your job site.

QuickCare's average response time for on-site First-Aid services to construction sites is approximately 54 minutes across our service area. This response time can vary based on factors such as:

This quick response ensures that injured workers receive timely care, reducing the potential for complications and minimizing downtime. For construction sites with recurring needs, we can also establish on-site medical stations with scheduled staffing for even faster response.
