Observer/Ride-Along Program
The Fort Lee Volunteer Ambulance Corps offers a Ride-Along Observer Program for prospective EMTs who are interested in learning about Emergency Medical Services and joining our Corps.
Observers are scheduled to ride with our crews and respond with them to emergency calls.
Observer candidates can start riding up to two months before they start their EMT program, with a valid Healthcare Provider CPR Card.
All shifts completed as an Observer will be credited toward the Corps stipend program after you join the Corps.
