Piedmont Athens Regional Student Volunteers
Placement Sessions
New college student volunteers must register to attend a placement session. Registration for the Fall 2018 sessions is now closed. Call 877-527-3712 to be added to priority waitlist. Important health screening requirements are below.
Required Health Screening Documents
All attendees must submit a complete health screening by Wednesday, Aug. 8. Records should be emailed to parvolplacement@piedmont.org.
The required records include proof of having had 2 doses of MMR vaccine during the students' lifetime as well as the results of 2 current negative TB skin tests. At least one of the TB tests must be taken within the three months prior to the placement session the student attends (must be dated May 15 or later). The other can be up to a year old (dated Aug. 15, 2017 or later). It is acceptable for both tests to be dated May 15, 2018 or later --- but at least one must be. Due to a required 7 day waiting period between tests, students should begin the health screening process at least two weeks prior to the submission deadline in order to complete the tests in time. Immunizations may be obtained through your private physician, at the University Health Center or at the Clarke County Health Department. Any student with a positive test result should contact Piedmont Athens Regional's Occupational Health Department at 706-475-3357 for further instructions. Additionally, you must provide proof of a flu shot by Oct. 15
