Membership Process

I've submitted an application, now what?

Members of our screening committee will be in contact with you at their earliest convenience. This member of the committee will set up a time for you to come down and 'interview' with the committee, so that they can get an understanding of your goals and expectations from New Milford Ambulance. Once you have met with the screening committee, they will bring your application to vote at our next monthly meeting. At this time a member of the committee will introduce your name, your membership related information(name, age, location, certification level and background), and the committee's recommendation of the applicant. Once an application has been approved by the membership it is then presented to the board of directors. The board of directors receive all information the membership received in the previous months meeting and is also given the memberships decision on the applicant. At this time the board votes on the applicant. When an applicant passes the board of directors' vote, the applicant is then contacted by a member of the screening committee to let them know of the memberships decision.

I've been told I was accepted, what happens next?

One of our officers will call you to set up a time to come down for your orientation. At orientation you will meet with the chief, assistant chief, and training officer.
