Driver

About the role

LifeCare is expanding and seeking full‑time and part‑time drivers to provide patient transportation to and from medical appointments and healthcare facilities. The driver also assists EMTs with moving and transporting patients in both emergent and non‑emergent settings.

The position requires an Emergency Vehicle Operators Certification (EVOC) rather than a CDL. LifeCare provides the EVOC course free for full‑time employees; part‑time hires or those not onboarded are charged a small fee. The hybrid EVOC course consists of online modules completed at the driver’s own pace, followed by an in‑person range and skills check and a cognitive exam. Range sessions are held monthly. All required certifications can be obtained through LifeCare with the applicant’s DMV record.

Requirements

• Must be at least 21 years old to operate ambulances and emergency/transport vehicles.
• Certified EVOC Operator (obtainable through LifeCare EVOC program).
• Current Healthcare Provider CPR certification (obtainable through LifeCare).
• Valid Virginia driver’s license with no negative points.
• Pass a criminal background check.
• FEMA Incident Command System (ICS) courses 100, 200, 700 & 800c (free via FEMA website).
• HAZMAT certification (free via FEMA website).
• TIMS certification (obtainable through VDOT or State Police for free).
• PASS certification (provided by LifeCare).
