Onboarding Process information

Thank you for considering Christus St. Vincent (CSV) as your volunteer choice.
 
Christus St. Vincent Volunteer Services provides compassionate, supportive volunteers who enhance the hospital’s capacity to provide an excellent experience to all communities served by Christus St. Vincent Health System.   
 
Kristin Slater-Huff is the Volunteer Manager and will walk you through the onboarding process. Please follow the link below to our online New Member Form. After you submit the form, Kristin will reach out to you to set up a time to meet in person. When we meet, if you have not downloaded your photo ID, please bring your license or passport so we can scan it for our digital files.

Onboarding

1. CSV Pre-Screening Review: Kristin will pass relevant information from your Application Form to the CSV Human Resources Department for a pre-screening review. 
2. Verified First: CSV will submit your Social Security number in an encrypted format to Verified First for a national background screening, at the expense of CSV.
3. Health Screening: Next, we will conduct a health screen and Tuberculosis test at no cost to you.

   You will receive an email link so you can fill in your health information. After completion you will schedule an appointment.

4. ID Badge: At your meeting with employee health, your picture will be taken for your ID badge.
5. CSV Orientation: Because our volunteers are valued at the same level as our hospital Associates, all volunteers complete an in-depth orientation prior to service. New Volunteer orientations are generally held on the last Friday of every month from 8:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m., followed by lunch on us. 
   
6. Uniform: You may select the style and size of the uniform you'd like from our range of 5 different purple tops.
7. Site specific caring: New volunteers shadow current volunteers in their service area for as many shifts as it takes to feel comfortable on their own.
8. You are a volunteer! Welcome to our wonderful community.
