Paramedicine can be a challenging and rewarding career. That’s partly why we receive so many applications for each open position. Although all of Ontario’s paramedic services strive to meet the same standards for patient care and service delivery, not all are exactly alike. Applying to work with a service that fits your personal and career goals is an important decision.

These are just a few qualities to consider that distinguish Frontenac Paramedics:


Just the right size: Frontenac Paramedics is small enough that paramedics personally get to know each other, their patients, and local medical staff but large enough that they get to experience a wide variety of calls in a wide variety of settings, both urban and rural.

Career growth and development: Frontenac Paramedics supercharge their credentials at St. Lawrence College or Queen’s University. They may serve on a range of Frontenac Paramedics specialty teams, work as Community Paramedics, learn new on-the-job skills, and formally expand their leadership capabilities.

Quality of life in Kingston and Frontenac County: Frontenac Paramedics enjoy a wide variety of lifestyle options for themselves and their families all while in easy proximity to three of Canada’s largest cities. Work in Kingston. Live in the country. Eat breakfast at home and be in any of Toronto, Ottawa, or Montreal before lunch.

Supportive and engaging work environment: Frontenac Paramedics has a wide array of mentorship opportunities, formal and informal mental health and mental hygiene supports, and easy access to responsive leadership. Frontenac Paramedics come from all backgrounds and walks of life. We believe that the differences among us make us stronger.

    Elected officials, Frontenac Paramedics, emergency system partners, Frontenac County staff, and friends gathered in Glenburnie this morning to officially open the new Glenburnie Frontenac Paramedics base.

    “It takes years of planning, cooperation, and commitment among funding partners and organizers to bring a new paramedics base to fruition,” says Frances Smith, Warden of Frontenac County. “This new building is a significant step toward equipping Frontenac Paramedics to serve the residents of Frontenac County and Kingston into the future.”

    The opening event included remarks from Lanark-Frontenac-Kingston MPP John Jordan, Kingston and the Islands MPP Ted Hsu, Parliamentary Assistant to MP Mark Gerretsen Molly Brant, City of Kingston Councillor Conny Glenn, Warden Smith, Frontenac County CAO Kevin Farrell, and Frontenac Paramedics Chief Gale Chevalier.

    There was an inaugural flag raising, ribbon cutting, and ceremonial Frontenac Paramedics first call followed by tours of the new base and a reception.

    Pictured are Parliamentary Assistant to MP Mark Gerretsen Molly Brant, Kingston and the Islands MPP Ted Hsu, Lanark-Frontenac-Kingston MPP John Jordan, Frontenac County Councillor Ray Leonard, Frontenac County Councillor Fred Fowler, Frontenac County Warden Frances Smith, Frontenac County Deputy Warden Ron Vandewal, Frontenac Paramedics Chief Gale Chevalier. Frontenac County Councillor Gerry Lichty, City of Kingston Councillor Conny Glenn, Frontenac County Councillor Bill Saunders, Frontenac County CAO Kevin Farrell, Frontenac County staff Brieanna McEathron.

    “Finding the financial resources, the land, and political support from all levels of government to then actually build a paramedics base is no joke,” says Frontenac Paramedics Chief Gale Chevalier. “As a project, it’s very hard work with many moving parts and constantly shifting priorities. We still have a lot of work to do to properly equip paramedics in Frontenac and across Eastern Ontario for the future.”

    The new two-bay station, located at 2129 Battersea Rd. in Glenburnie, allows Frontenac Paramedics to accommodate more ambulances and on-duty paramedics as demand for emergency medical service continues to grow in our region. The new station, located five minutes north of the Montreal St exit at Highway 401, will primarily serve the Rideau Heights and Montreal St. areas of Kingston, the Highway 401 corridor, and rapidly developing areas of the Township of South Frontenac.

    The new Glenburnie Frontenac Paramedics base was officially opened and activated, July 5.
