Remote Orientation

For new employees approved for remote work arrangements – living AND working more than 100 miles from VUMC Nashville campus. Prior approval is required.


As you prepare for your new job, please make sure you have completed the items on the HR Onboarding Portal. 

As an employee working in a remote location, the process for completing the I-9 Employment Eligibility Verification could be especially time sensitive. This must be completed within 3 business days from your official start date. You will receive an email on or before your hire date with the instructions to complete the I-9 form.  This could require overnight mailing of acceptable documents.

Once we have received information that your background check has cleared, we will send an email from VUMCOrientation@vumc.org to the personal email address you provided. You can expect this on the Friday afternoon before your start date. This email will give you information about a required live virtual session, claiming your VUMC ID, benefits, online training, completing your HR record and a quick reference guide to complete your W-4 and Direct Deposit. You will also receive pdf of the VUMC Orientation Guide.
