ORGANIZATION: Jersey Cares

  • 9 people are interested

NJ Poison Control has a need for volunteers, with some healthcare experience, to assist with answering hotline and assist in the overflow of COVID-19 phone calls. Volunteers will answer the NJ Poison Control general phone line and direct callers to appropriate department and/or agency.
For Example #1: a caller calls in about COVID-19 symptoms... this is not a call relating to poisoning, so they are referred to the appropriate agency.
Example #2: An Emergency Room calls poison control and advises a child ingested bleach and Tylenol. That call would be routed to a doctor at Poison Control.

You will be secured in an office type of environment within University Hospital, and Poison Control will provide all necessary "on the job training."

It is a safe and enclosed environment, and social distancing will be followed.

Flexible Shifts: 4-8 hours in length, between 12pm and 12am.
