Haztech is proud to now offer Mental Health First Aid training programs in-person and online

Haztech Safety Training is proud to now offer Mental Health First Aid, both in-person and online. This one-day course covers what to do when someone is experiencing a mental health problem or crisis. The course curriculum and instructor, Shelagh Robinson, are both certified by the Mental Health Commission of Canada.

At Haztech, we understand the importance of mental health both internally as an organization, and for our clients when providing On-Site Medical Services, Security, Patient Transfer Services, or any other service involving patients or ensuring a safe environment.

What is Mental Health First Aid?
Mental Health First Aid is the help provided to a person developing a mental health problem, experiencing the worsening of an existing mental health problem, or in a mental health crisis. Just like physical first aid is provided until medical treatment can be obtained, MHFA is given until appropriate support is found or until the crisis is resolved.

MHFA benefits the community, the workplace, and the individual. It helps to increase awareness, increase confidence, and decrease the stigma surrounding mental health. Overall, MHFA contributes to a healthy and safe community, aligning with Haztech’s mission –

Our focus is the health & safety of our people, clients, and the communities in which we live, work & play.

Shelagh Robinson joins the Haztech Team as their lead Injury Management Specialist, working with clients across the business in Canada and the USA.

Shelagh started her EMS career with Humboldt Ambulance, followed by a 20-year career as an Advanced Care Paramedic with MD Ambulance Care Ltd. in Saskatoon.  After sustaining a workplace injury, she participated in multiple therapy programs and return-to-work accommodations and was eventually assigned to her first industrial contract on the Lanigan Potash Mine.

While working on this site, Shelagh began to understand how and why her own workplace injury occurred. She developed a passion to learn more about injury incidents, prevention, and the process of managing onsite return-to-work programs. Shelagh went on to develop her own injury management system and processes for organizations to implement with the goal of keeping workers at work and engaged in their own recovery, while always adhering to functional limitations.

Shelagh has worked with clients from Baffin Island to Vancouver Island in multiple industries including; oil and gas, potash mining, Hydro Electrical Mega Project, steel fabrication and erection, civic government, transit operations, and many more. Successfully returning over $1,000,000 to employer’s WCB accounts through Disability & Injury Management best practices, WCB appeals, and cost recovery over the past few years.

Certified as a Psychological Health & Safety Advisor through the Canadian Mental Health Association, Shelagh has the ability to implement and monitor mental health programs and complex psychological RTW (return-to-work) programs for clients.

She has worked with several unions across Canada as it relates to collective agreements, human rights, disability management, and RTW initiatives.

With a passion for helping injured workers and supporting employers, her experience and knowledge significantly increase the success in returning employees as early, and as safely as possible to their pre-injury employment. As a specialist, she strives to capitalize on advances in technology, social networks, and remote workforce alternatives to set new standards of excellence in the field.

Her medical background, NCSO Safety experience, extensive work as an injury management specialist, and strong understanding of the role of safety & prevention allow Shelagh to bring a specific and valuable skill set to the Haztech team.
