Background Check Information

The healthcare community often requires volunteers to pass a background check prior to having contact with vulnerable people, and our board and committees agree that this layer of professionalism and security should be offered to the people we serve. Therefore, we will run a criminal background check on all certified peer visitor candidates.

Have you ever been convicted of a crime other than a minor traffic offense? *

Yes

Does the Amputee Coalition have permission to perform a background check on you? *

Yes

I authorize investigation of all statements herein, including any checks of criminal records, and release the Coalition and all others from liability in connection with same. I also understand that misrepresentations or falsifications herein or in other documents completed or submitted by the applicant will result in dismissal, regardless of the date of discovery by the Coalition. If permission is given, you will receive an email from the Coalition with a link to Sterling Volunteers background check system within 2 weeks of application submission.
