Community & Ambulance Volunteer Interview Questions & Answers

To prepare for a community or ambulance volunteer interview, expect questions on why you want to give your time, what volunteers such as community first responders and volunteer car drivers can and cannot do, staying calm and safe at a frightening scene, confidentiality when you may know the patient, safeguarding, boundaries with the people you support and how you will look after your own wellbeing. You do not need a healthcare background: panels want honesty, reliability, good judgement and a clear sense of when to call for help, so read your ambulance trust's or charity's own scheme rules before you go in.
