Welcome • TVAC Application

 

Welcome!

Thank you for your interest in joining TVAC.

The Teaneck Volunteer Ambulance Corps is Teaneck’s only emergency ambulance service.  All of our members are volunteers, and serve the township without pay.  TVAC responds to over 3,000 emergency calls per year and routinely saves lives and reduces suffering with our rapid response and application of Basic Life Support skills.  When you join us, you will become a part of a well organized, well prepared team that will count on you as a valued member.

 To become a member, you must be:

  • at least 15.5 years of age

  • in good health

  • able to lift

  • capable of physical exercise

All members must be available to commit to a minimum of four hours per week on duty, ready to respond in uniform from our headquarters.  Additionally, we require each member to complete a bi-annual ten-hour Sunday shift.  No previous training is necessary to join, however, you will be required to become a state certified Emergency Medical Technician within nine months of joining.  We will help you to obtain training and assist you in utilizing state funding to cover the cost of your training.  You will be given plenty of supervision and assistance to ensure that you become a competent and confident EMT.

Men and women of all races, religions, ethnic groups and sexual orientations are invited to join.  Out of town residents are welcome, provided that they are available to serve their four hours between 7am and 7pm, or are able to sleep at headquarters one night a week between 11pm and 7am.

Don’t be shy!  If you have any questions at all, please email Meira Tiboldo at mista1025@gmail.com or call us at (201) 837-2600 (ask for the Ambulance Corps).
