    Volunteer Drivers - Patient Transport: Mankato, Blue Earth/Nicollet Counties, MN

    VTN (Volunteer Transportation Network) Volunteer drivers provide rides for Veterans located within the Blue Earth and Nicollet County areas for their appointments at our Mankato VA Clinic and local Community Care. Drivers use a VA supplied vehicle to transport our Veterans and will start and end their day at the Mankato VA Community Based Outpatient Clinic. Shifts are Monday through Friday.

    Volunteer drivers must:

    Pass a basic driver physical exam with Minneapolis VA Occupational Health including immunization records and tuberculosis test, and maintain annual VA driver physical exam.

    Provide and maintain a copy of their safe driving record.

    Provide and maintain proof of personal automobile insurance.

    Consent to fingerprinting and successfully pass background check.

    Complete initial and annual training for VA Volunteer Transportation Network drivers.

    A resume is not required but can be submitted before or during the initial new volunteer appointment with CDCE.
