TB testing and health assessments are available Monday through Friday at the River Community clinic. It is the applicant's responsibility to schedule the health assessment by calling (315) 482-2094; be sure to let the scheduler know this assessment is for volunteer status, and ensure to present the completed Volunteer Health Assessment Form, including signature, at the time of the appointment.
