The Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) is a national system of local, community-based teams of volunteers—medical and public health professionals and others without health backgrounds—who are identified, credentialed, trained, and prepared in advance of an emergency. Other public health and medical professionals (e.g., epidemiologists, environmental engineers, toxicologists) can provide logistical support and information technology support as well as staff information hotlines and mass clinics, assist with registration, and perform health screening. |
