Staff accommodations are some of the best I have seen or heard of in EMS. Most of the rooms are large and spacious, the beds all have memory foam toppers and are at least a double. Ensuite bathrooms with showers and bar sinks allow a great deal of privacy. There is a basic gym which allows for one person to do light exercising and weight lifting. The communal area has a nice kitchen with large couches and communal TV. Like watching your own shows? Each room has its own TV as well.

Staff are friendly, typically when someone’s leaves, has a baby or has an illness many coworkers band together to get a gift basket or more. Everyone is driven and eager to help others learn.

Peace River although surrounded by land so flat you could watch your ex walk away for a year. However, there is a beautiful river valley. In the Fall the changing of the trees colours is a beauty that contends with Moraine Lakes Larch Valley. Peace has a nice restaurant called Board n Barrel that you can find many APL staff enjoying during down time with a beautiful river front patio. There’s many trails on Misery Mountain although more of a large mound, but still majestic and nice for running, cycling or ATVing.
