Out of an abundance of caution for the safety of our clients, Caterpillar Playground requires all volunteers to submit a background check in the form of a Live Scan report. Once we have agreed to begin a volunteering schedule, we will provide you with a Live Scan form, which can be processed at several locations. Unfortunately, we are not in a position to cover the cost of Live Scans for our volunteers, meaning that you are responsible for the cost of the scan. As of 09/05/2024, the total cost for Live Scan submission is approximately $124.*

I agree and understand that I must provide at Live Scan report at my own cost in order to become a volunteer with Caterpillar Playground Occupational and Physical Therapy.I have recently completed a Live Scan for another facility and can obtain and provide a copy.

Caterpillar Playground provides medical services to children. This means that we maintain confidentiality according to HIPAA rules. Our therapists, staff, and volunteers must all abide by these rules.

We may not discuss or disclose any client's information via written, verbal, or electronic means in any way that could risk the client's confidentiality. When you begin volunteering with us, you will be provided with a copy of our HIPAA agreement.

We encourage you, as a valued volunteer, to read about HIPAA guidelines prior to beginning your time with us.

I understand that I must follow the confidentiality guidelines under HIPAA law as well as the policies of Caterpillar Playground. In the event that I do something to risk a client's confidential information, my volunteer work at this facility may be immediately terminated.*

I agree
