Join one of the largest EMS providers in North America

BCEHS is the lead emergency medical and out-of-hospital healthcare service provider in British Columbia and the largest in Canada.

We respond to over 500,000 ground events and 7,800 air events every year.

BCEHS provides out-of-hospital, emergency services, and inter-facility patient transfers throughout the province, and oversees the BC Ambulance Service and BC Patient Transfer Services.

CALL TAKERS & DISPATCHERS

Call Takers receive 9-1-1 calls, work with dispatch, and can deliver life-saving instructions over the phone.

Dispatchers manage ambulance responses to ensure the right care arrives on scene.

Patient Transfer Coordinators plan transfers between hospital & medical facilities.

The world of paramedicine is so different from a nurse and a doctor, people who work in facility, because we are actually going into people’s homes.
