The use of illegal drugs, alcohol, medications and other substances can adversely affect job performance, the safety of employees and the people they work with. Employees and contractors are required to report to work in fit mental and physical condition to perform their work. Certain positions held by employees and contractors may be designated as safety-sensitive. Individuals in these positions are required to pass a drug and alcohol test as a condition of certification into the position to maintain their contractual obligations with respect to adhering to company and client policies. Strategic Health Solutions' Drug & Alcohol Tests provide accurate and timely results to support informed decision-making at work, at home, and in the community.

We offer drug and alcohol testing technologies including oral fluids and urine testing for all your pre-employment, pre-access, reasonable suspicion, and post-incident requirements. Samples are analyzed by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) approved labs to ensure gold standard.

In Respiratory Therapy, we see just how important lung health is as we do not notice our breathing until it is compromised. Prevention, early detection and education is key. Our Registered Respiratory Therapist has seen countless people in Northern Alberta, where farming, logging, oil & gas, construction and many other types of work, can and has caused lung issues. These concerns, short term, long term, or permanent, can affect your life drastically when you still need to work and provide for your family. Sometimes lungs can heal and improve, but a lot of the damage is irreversible. Safety measures, equipment and policies has greatly improved over time but there is still risk, still unexpected exposures and situations that can arise. This is the nature of industry, and industry is a major area of employment for our province, especially in the north.

This is why it is important to have the availability of Spirometry testing and consultation with a Registered Respiratory Therapist for the industry and corporate community. Spirometry measures lung function through the amount and speed of air forcefully exhaled. It is used to help in the diagnosis of lung diseases and conditions, monitor current lung conditions, assess effectiveness of lung treatments and screen for occupational-related lung disorders. Performing Spirometry pre-employment gives a baseline of your current lung condition at time of hire. Then follow-up spirometry is done periodically, post exposure, annually or semi-annually (depending on your employer's regulations/policies), to monitor your lung function and safety. This testing also helps indicate lung fitness for the work/tasks that you may perform throughout your employment.

We provide respiratory assessments and give direction to seek further physician assessment or other services and testing should the need arise. Provide education and information on current or new lung conditions/occupational exposures/triggers/inhaled medications/respiratory precautions/coping and how to work with shortness of breath/breathing techniques with exercise to improve endurance and ability to work/conserving your energy to work effectively/controlled coughing/tobacco/vaping cessation and discuss other respiratory concerns.

Many jobs require employees to be able to perform work tasks that are critical to their role (otherwise known as bonafide occupational requirements, or BROR’s for Short.) These work tasks may include lifting, carrying, crouching, bending, reaching, and a long period of time spent moving without rest. Despite how common these job-related activities are, employers often overlook the importance of evaluating these activities and comparing them against a job candidates’ physical capabilities. That’s where our Physical Fitness Testing comes in. Strategic Health offers a comprehensive Physical Fitness Testing service so you can be sure you have the right hire for the job.
