Big Country Medical Reserve Corps Community volunteers supporting emergency preparedness and response efforts

The Medical Reserve Corps is a national network of volunteer medical professionals, public health experts, and others. Local MRC volunteers are trained as part of a team and work within their community’s health, preparedness, and response infrastructures to help meet local medical and public health needs during emergencies. MRC volunteers also promote preparedness in their communities to improve everyday health, reducing potential public health risks and vulnerabilities. MRC volunteers include medical and public health professionals such as physicians, nurses, pharmacists, dentists, veterinarians and epidemiologists. Community members including interpreters, chaplains, office workers, legal advisors and others are needed to fill key support positions.
