Medical Services
Certified French medical professionals with SAMU coordination and Code du travail compliance for every production.
France's Code du travail mandates specific health and safety provisions for film productions, and the country's well-organized emergency medical system (SAMU) provides an efficient framework for on-set medical coverage. French set medics operate within this regulated environment, holding appropriate national certifications and maintaining coordination with local hospitals and emergency services across every production region.
Our network includes qualified medical professionals experienced in supporting productions at La Cité du Cinéma, on Parisian streets, at remote heritage sites like Mont-Saint-Michel and Pont du Gard, and in challenging Alpine and coastal locations. They understand both the regulatory requirements of French production and the specific medical risks associated with stunts, extreme weather, and extended shooting schedules.

FAQ
Medical Coverage Expertise
When is a set medic required?
French Code du travail regulations and production insurance require medical coverage for stunts, pyrotechnics, large crews, remote locations, and extended days. Our team helps determine the appropriate coverage level for your production's French regulatory and insurance requirements.
What qualifications do your medics have?
Our medics hold French national certifications — infirmier diplômé d'état, secouriste professionnel, or equivalent qualifications — with specific training in on-set medical response and experience on French and international productions.
What equipment do medics bring?
Our medics arrive with comprehensive equipment appropriate to the production's risk assessment. For standard coverage, full first aid provisions; for stunts and action at French studios or locations, enhanced equipment including oxygen, AEDs, and trauma supplies.
How do you handle emergencies?
We establish emergency protocols before production — SAMU contact procedures, hospital routes from each French location, sapeur-pompier coordination, and evacuation plans. Our bilingual medics communicate with both international crew and French emergency services.
Can you cover remote locations?
Yes, we provide medical coverage for remote French locations — Alpine settings, rural Provence, isolated heritage sites, coastal Normandy — planning for extended SAMU response times and bringing enhanced equipment for isolated environments.
What about stunt coverage?
For stunt work at La Cité du Cinéma or on location across France, we provide enhanced medical coverage with additional personnel and equipment. Our medics coordinate with stunt coordinators and understand the specific French regulatory requirements for high-risk filming activities.
