Become A Volunteer

 

Brighton Volunteer Ambulance performs many services within the community. Some do not require medical training. Being onboard an ambulance as a driver or medical provider does require specific training to meet New York State laws.

Volunteer medical staff are always needed to fill openings in shifts for any one of our three emergency ambulances. No medical training is needed to join at Brighton Volunteer Ambulance. We will pay for all the necessary training for those individuals who plan to help fill shifts with our agency. Our only request is that every member commit to providing 12 hours per month toward their duties.

Our organization has openings for base attendants. This position includes direct interaction with the community, but not in a medical capacity. There are a limited number of Support members, who act as a point of information for the community and crews that are on the road. Duties include maintaining historical information, giving public demonstrations, teaching CPR and First Aid classes, performing car-seat inspections, assisting with Loan Closet items, greeting the public, and answering telephones to name just a few.

For more information about becoming a member please pick up an application at our base. We are located at 1551 South Winton Road at Westfall Road. You can also have an application sent to you by calling our offices at (585) 271-2718 ext. 218 or by e-mailing membership@brightonambulance.org with your contact information.
