Registration Table - Confirming the names and information of the arriving participants. Depending on the size of the screening and number of volunteers, this role may also entail directing the flow of participants from the check-in area to/from the designated screening areas.
Data Entry - Ensuring the basic information for each participant is correct in the system.
Heart Screener - WWPF will provide an instructional video, training, and resources prior to the screening. This step-by-step process will be made clear in order to collect a successful ECG reading from each participant.
