Qualifications & Experience
What we're looking for
• You understand that cancer can change everything and that accessing critical programs and services creates a whole new level of community.
• You recognize that the Wheels of Hope program requires flexibility, as we respond to the continually changing schedules of current clients and other drivers.
• You enjoy meeting a variety of people and have the patience to deal with the times you may be waiting for a client to finish treatment.
• You can represent CCS positively as you interact with members of the public and are a guest in facilities like Hospitals, Cancer Centres and Lodges.
• You are ready to do your best to make a client’s ride to treatment one less thing they have to worry about, allowing them the space and focus to handle their journey in their own way.
• You are comfortable using online tools, like email and our scheduling software.
• You MUST have a full driver's license (temporary, beginners, G1/G2 and others will not be accepted)
• Your drivers license must be valid with 3 or fewer demerit points and an acceptable driving record.
• You carry a minimum of $1M third party liability insurance on your 100% smoke-free vehicle and are willing to have a criminal records check and regular driver abstract checks completed.
· We no longer require our Wheels of Hope Volunteer Drivers to be COVID Vaccinated but to ensure we are still protecting our volunteers and clients from the spread of COVID-19 and other illnesses, we are enforcing expectations around staying home if you are feeling ill to ensure others do not get sick. If you are a volunteer that works directly with clients, this is especially important as the health of many of our clients who have received or are currently receiving cancer treatment may be more vulnerable.
Measures that should be taken are as follows; Stay home and do not attend your in-person volunteer shift if you are feeling ill, COVID-19 related or otherwise; If you test positive for COVID-19, please do not attend your in-person volunteer shift(s) for 5 days. If a health care professional has suggested more isolation time, listen to their advice and let your CCS staff partner know. If you are still experiencing strong symptoms after 5 days, such as high fever, do not return to your in-person volunteer role with CCS until the symptoms abate.
