Central Oregon First Aid

Central Oregon First Aid has been Redmond's premier safety training and consulting provider for over 20 years. Started by a former EMT and safety manager, we combine real-world emergency response experience with practical workplace safety expertise. Our team understands the unique challenges facing Central Oregon businesses, from agricultural operations to aerospace manufacturing and everything in between. We've built lasting relationships with local businesses by focusing on practical solutions that work in real operating conditions. Our consultants don't just check boxes – we help create safety cultures that genuinely protect workers while meeting regulatory requirements. With over 500 local businesses trained and countless workplace incidents prevented, we're proud to be Central Oregon's most trusted safety partner.

Our comprehensive OSHA compliance services begin with thorough workplace assessments that identify current violations and potential hazards before they become problems. We conduct detailed safety audits covering mechanical hazards, chemical exposures, ergonomic risks, and environmental factors specific to your industry. Our safety training programs combine classroom instruction with hands-on practice, ensuring workers can apply what they learn. We develop complete safety management systems including written programs, training materials, and implementation schedules tailored to your operations. Our fire safety expertise includes emergency action planning, evacuation procedures, and fire prevention system evaluation. We also provide specialized services like confined space assessment, fall protection planning, and respiratory protection program development. Ongoing support includes regular safety meetings, incident investigation assistance, and help navigating the ever-changing landscape of safety regulations.

We start every engagement with a detailed consultation to understand your business operations, current safety practices, and specific regulatory concerns. Our comprehensive facility assessment typically takes 1-2 days and includes employee interviews to identify practical safety challenges. Within five business days, you receive a detailed report with prioritized recommendations and implementation timelines. Our implementation process focuses on the most critical issues first, then systematically builds your complete safety program. We work closely with your supervisors and employees throughout the process, ensuring everyone understands their role in maintaining a safe workplace. Training sessions are scheduled around your operational needs, and we provide all necessary materials and documentation. Follow-up visits occur at regular intervals to monitor progress and make adjustments based on your real-world experience.

We serve all of Central Oregon from our Redmond base, including Bend, Prineville, Sisters, and Madras. Our service area extends throughout Deschutes, Crook, and Jefferson counties, with regular clients from the Cascade foothills to the high desert region. We also work with businesses in smaller communities like Culver, Terrebonne, and Powell Butte. Travel time is included in our rates for locations within 60 miles of Redmond, making our services accessible to rural operations.
