• Assist participants getting in and out of vehicles, as well as transferring participants in and out of wheelchairs
• Remain alert to pertinent input from other team members, participants, and caregivers, and promptly update the Transportation Supervisor of any changes in a participant’s condition or psychosocial status

Job requirements include:

• High school diploma or equivalency; one (1) year of experience may be substituted in lieu of education
• Copy of recent vehicle insurance required
• All drivers must hold a valid driver’s license and meet company driving qualifications, including eligibility under our commercial auto insurance program. Applicants must generally be at least 25 years old; candidates ages 23–24 may be considered based on driving history and other underwriting criteria. Drivers over age 70 may be required to provide current medical certification
• Availability to work a variable schedule is required; shift assignments are determined by operational needs and may include weekdays, evenings, weekends, and holidays
• Must be comfortable using technology
• Experience in non-emergency transportation or public transportation preferred
• Participate in the DMV pull notice and random testing for alcohol and controlled substances programs, pass DOJ/FBI background check, and pass DOT physical exam
• Must obtain CPR and First Aid certification within 180 days of hire and maintain certification thereafter; CPR and First Aid certification upon hire preferred

We are seeking Drivers that ideally have patient transport and/or exceptional customer service experience. If you’re ready to join a team that values both its participants and team members, we’d love to hear from you!
