What is Required of Members?

 

There are three basic requirements for UDECU members. First, UDECU requires a minimum of (12) twelve hours per month of duty. Second, members must attend the membership meeting held on the first Sunday of each month. The final requirement is within a year of joining, each member must be enrolled in a Delaware Emergency Medical Technician Course held outside the University. In addition, it is strongly recommended that members attend training sessions held throughout the year.

Upon acceptance, you will become fully involved with the organization. During your probationary period of one semester you will become familiar with how the ambulance and equipment operates, become certified in CPR, and assist with patient care by riding along on actual ambulance calls. For the period that you are a probationary member, you will be assigned a current member as your field trainer. Your field trainer will assist you in familiarizing you with the ambulance, equipment and procedures used by UDECU.
