Volunteer Communication
Of course, we want to hear from you on how we can improve!
We intend to conduct a monthly meeting with volunteers and service users to see how we can continue to improve our services.
Volunteers will also be a part of a Facebook page where we can communicate with one another, keep team members updated on our experiences and ask for help and support when needed.
First Aid Training
This project would propose that all volunteers are provided with a standard of First Aid Training. This training would help to increase the comfort of volunteers when working with vulnerable populations. Because we would be working alongside BC Ambulance Services, volunteers wouldn’t be expected to perform high levels of first aid, but have the basic skills to help provide a standard first aid while awaiting medical services, if needed.
All volunteers would receive a Standard Level of First Aid training, and two selected volunteers would receive Wilderness and Remote First Aid training.
