What kinds of members are invited to join?
Anyone who wants to help can be useful in the MRC! In the same way that a hospital needs more than doctors and nurses in order to function, an MRC benefits from the contributions of each member, regardless of their level. For general deployment purposes, we have identified three basic categories of service through our unit: Advanced-level care providers have the most extensive certifications including physicians, nurse practitioners, and paramedics. • First-responder care providers include basic-level EMTs and LPNs. • Non-medical care providers are those who offer crucial support functions, such as database administrators and greeters at clinics. Each member can offer valuable service, regardless of their level of medical training, and may become indispensable in a given emergency!
