Volunteer updat unfo! All read!

[bshumake]

I talked to Janis (nursing coordinator) and heres what can be done for anyone interested in volunteering for St Jude aquarium maintenance:
TB testing can be done by another hospital or MD office, they will have to provide proof of testing and results. Same with shots. Please remember if we do them here it is free.
IDs will be a problem.
IF we have a group of poeple ready to begin, she might be able to work something out with security/HR to do this on an evening or weekend.
Perhaps we could have our next meeting here at St Jude one evening and get this done at the same time.
So basically volunteering will now go like this.
Apply and fax apps to me at 901-495-5231
Have your physician administer and read the TB skintest and fill out your shot record.
Get the ID picture's made and a meeting here on campus.
We're done.
Wee!

Remind me again what shots we're supposed to have? I have no "shot record" as I've not had a shot for anything for at least 20 years.

I use to have a shot record, however I retired 20 some odd years ago and don't know where it went.

I believe that is something that your physician would know about. When you fill out the volunteer application I think there is a section about immunizations.

I do not have an immunization record. I attended school in Arkansas and now live in Tennessee. My MD has no idea what immunizations I have had. The one who gave me my initial childhood immunizations killed himself several decades ago!! I do know what common childhood illnesses I have had and that I have had the 3 part series Hepatitis B inj, as well as flu and pneumonia immunizations. I had a smallpox vaccination as well as Oral Polio Vaccine on a sugarcube as I child. I was unsure what type of measles I had, so she may decide to do a titer on me. I will call her (Occupational Health Nurse, Marian Baker) to see if this is sufficient. I plan on getting off work early on Friday and going to St. Jude to hopefully get my ID made.
