Ingham County Medical Reserve Corps
The Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) Program coordinates the skills of active and retired physicians, nurses and other health professionals as well as other citizens interested in health issues, who are eager to volunteer to address their community's ongoing public health needs and to help their community during large-scale emergency situations.

Ingham County is recruiting people to build our own Medical Reserve Corps Unit. We have identified ways you can help our community and we will continue to explore ways volunteers can help meet specific community needs. For example, MRC volunteers may deliver necessary public health services during a crisis, assist emergency response teams with patients, and provide care directly to those with less serious injuries and other health-related issues.

The Corps in Action

The MRC consists of "Front Line" Medical and Public Health Volunteers, working along side Medical Support Volunteers. For more detail on these opportunities, click here.

Volunteering for ICMRC is a way to offer your skills at those time when, in the past, you had to stand by because you weren't adequately prepared to be part of the response effort. Learn more here.
