Advanced Shift: The Admissions Intake Volunteer works in the Center with our admissions team at the intake desk. This is the first interaction the public will have when they bring in an animal, so it is imperative that volunteers conduct themselves with the highest standards. Our admissions team is critical to the success of our center and our volunteers make a difference by allowing the team to focus on the hotline.

- Greet and assist rescuers
- Process incoming wildlife
- Intake/admission of animals utilizing our intake software
