Important Tips
- You must be at least 16 years old to participate in the NEMS Volunteer Program. If you are between the ages of 16 and 18, you will need your parent/guardian to co-sign all applicable forms.
- If you would like to volunteer at NEMS, you must complete a background and health check, which could take up to 3 weeks. To expedite this process, please follow the instructions below. NOTE: Failure to complete any of the above items may result in DELAYS in the onboarding process.
- The forms will be sent to you via email. If you do not see them in your inbox, please check your SPAM folder.
- Please carefully read the directions of the background check form before submitting it. If you have any questions, we are happy to walk you through the form step-by-step.
- You are required to complete several health assessments and provide a personal immunization record. Please get in contact with the appropriate agency(ies) as soon as you apply to obtain the necessary information.
- You must complete either a Two-Step PPD Skin TB test OR a One-Step QFT Blood test. Please note that if you are on a tight timeline, we would recommend that you take the One-Step QFT Blood Test. Please contact your healthcare provider to set up an appointment as soon as you apply. If you do not have a healthcare provider, please contact us.
- You must be up to date with your vaccinations (including COVID-19 boosters).
- If you only want to shadow, you will not need a background check, but you may only shadow a provider for up to 5 days per year.
