- Provide primary, public, and emergency healthcare services within your scope of practice.
- Collaborate with nurses and other healthcare professionals in a team-based model.
- Conduct comprehensive patient assessments and initiate appropriate interventions.

- Support health promotion and disease prevention initiatives.
- Assist with operational and administrative duties as required.
- Travel by small aircraft, off-road vehicles, snowmobiles, or watercraft as needed.
- Work in varied and sometimes extreme weather conditions.
