What type of work is involved with being a SERV member?
SERV volunteers can anticipate work as early as this November when the city will conduct its annual emergency flu vaccination exercise. SERV volunteers will assist in greeting patients, distributing and compiling forms, directing traffic, and other general duties. The exercise represents the Department of Homeland Security’s efforts to conduct Point of Distribution training in anticipation of potential flu outbreaks. POD exercises help to prepare communities for rapid vaccination and outbreak control. All SERV members will be notified of the exact date and location of the POD exercise in early September.
