New CSA Standard Addresses Psychological Health and Safety for the Paramedic Community – A Canadian First
Each year, CSA recognizes individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the world of standards through the presentation of the John Jenkins Award, the Award of Merit, and for the second year – the Young Professional Award. Past winners hold these awards in high regard as they were nominated by their fellow members and peers.In previous years, our Member Awards have been presented at a special ceremony held during the CSA Group Annual Conference. With the cancellation of the 2020 Annual Conference & Committee Week, we will be featuring a series of profiles on CSA Communities and social media to recognize the many achievements of each of our award recipients. Please watch for these profiles as they are shared later this spring! Our 2020 award recipients have also been invited to attend the 2021 Annual Conference & Committee Week, scheduled to be held in Vancouver on June 14-18.
