Is Lakewood Hatzala looking for more volunteers? Or are they rejecting new applications?
As far as I know the EMT course is expensive. I suggest you should only take it if you really would like to know the stuff. If you’re taking it to join any organization, don’t waste your money and time. Every organization has their ways they accept members based on a lot of different factors. My friend was accepted onto hatzolah after applying for 7 years. That was the time it made sense strategically for him to be taken on. Lakewood hatzolah takes on members every year. I heard they have a list of 200 applications and Flatbush has over 500. Do you think they should take on all 200 & 500? Of course not. That’s why every organization has a process.
@Sruly, Why wouldn’t they take on more members?
The more members, the more people available in times of need. If an area has “too many volunteers”, that can say they won’t be covering the cost of more equipment for that area. But I don’t think they should be ignoring willing and capable applicants. (obviously they need to vet all applicants properly)
