  13. Most calls will be for a service request from members. You need to do two things:  1)  Add the Service Requests to the calendar.  2) Enter all the information in the shift notes.  Your shift notes entry should contain the listing of the service from the Volunteer Self-Signup screen so that the details are known.

     

  14. Find a Volunteer for the member's request, if you have enough time left during your shift.

     

  15. Periodically check the Nauset Neighbors Gmail account and the Voice Mail Inbox  to make sure no one has signed up for a service.  If they have, update those requests.  

     

  16. Check the services calendar for "pending" requests and notify the members that they have a ride as described in Confirming Pending Service Requests.

     

  17. Check for Requests Needing Volunteers. (Status is Requested)
