Episode 154: Episode 5-11 – Todd LeDuc – Lifescan Wellness Centers

5-Alarm Task Force!

Firefighter health, wellness and fitness-for-duty – you have often heard us address these topics because they define our abilities as firefighters. If you do not take care of yourself, how do you expect to be able to care for others? Our guest on this podcast, is my friend, Todd Leduc, Chief Strategy Officer of Lifescan Wellness Centers. And FYI, before Todd joined the Lifescan team, he served for thirty years with Broward County Fire – Rescue, attaining the rank of Executive Assistant Chief of Department.
Today, the average physical exam a firefighter may receive from his/her PCP, is the same that almost any other patient would receive. However, NFPA 1582 and 1583, contains specific examination requirements that are custom-tailored to the fire service, be you career, volunteer, etc. And often times, your PCP, just cannot provide that level of exams for you.
This is where Lifescan Wellness Centers come in. With their motto, “Saving America’s First Responders,” your department contracts directly with them. Our guest, Todd LeDuc provides you with a clear picture of the dedication and commitment of LWC to care for and protect our first responders. Within our discussion, you will hear several true stories of how Lifescan’s comprehensive examinations, have saved REAL lives and do so, almost every day.
