SEVERAL OPTIONS TO JOIN
ACTIVE RIDING MEMBER: We all started somewhere. We will help you become a NJ Certified EMT, pay for your training and make sure you have the tools and experience to become a senior member in the corps. If you are certified in another state we will help you secure NJ reciprocity. Already have your NJ EMT certification but no 911 experience? We will teach you what you need to know to bridge the gap between theory and real world EMS. Already a 911-experienced EMT? We will acclimate you to the corps and to the idiosyncracies of EMS in Dumont.
RESERVE MEMBER: Already a 911-experienced EMT but can’t commit to riding a regular full shift? Join us as a Reserve Member and we’ll work out a mutually beneficial schedule.
AUXILLIARY MEMBER: Want to help, but don’t want to become an EMT or ride the ambulance? There are many other ways to still help us in our mission.
