While this is a Medical Reserve Corps (PHRC), nothing happens without Support (Non Medical) volunteers. These folks do a myriad of task/jobs:
Whether we are setting up a field medical station, a mass despensing event or doing support for the underserved community, the Support Volunteer is a must.
Our support volunteers, answer phones, move equipment, provide line support, manage paperwork and patients.
Sign up for our orientation and see if there is a fit for you.
