Step 5: Background investigation - Potential volunteers will be asked to authorize a background check before they can be accepted as a volunteer. This form will be provided at the New Volunteer Orientation. Step 6: Health screening - After orientation you will make a health screening appointment with Employee Health.

One can be within the previous 12 months; the second test must have been within the past three months. Alameda Health System can provide the second TST, if needed.
