Ottawa Paramedics Supporting Communities

Paramedics will always respond to 9-1-1 calls, but we also need more paramedics to fill important roles that safely support treat & release, treat & discharge and other contexts of health care, in order to take pressure off hospital emergency departments. Some of these other roles include:

1. Paramedic Response Units
2. Mental Wellness Response Teams
3. Street Outreach
4. Palliative Care
5. Event Paramedics
6. Community Paramedics

PPAO Local Sponsors

The Professional Paramedic Association of Ottawa (PPAO) represents paramedics but we are not an employer or labour union. We are part of a national association of over 28000 paramedics from across Canada. These paramedics volunteer to pay an annual membership fee that is utilized to fund projects for patient care advocacy and professional development.
