The Greater Prince William Medical Reserve Corps (GPWMRC) is comprised of both medical and non-medical volunteers that are trained to respond to public health emergencies and also support day-to-day health district operations. Opportunities vary in nature, and the types of activities and the time you would like to commit is completely up to you! Opportunities include free online and in-class training on various emergency management and public health topics. Some online classes offer free CEUs. Training topics include the Incident Command System/National Incident Management System, Psychological First Aid, Mass Antibiotic Dispensing Operations, Personal Preparedness, Basic Life Support CPR, Heartsaver First Aid, Risk Communications, and much more. MRC volunteers participate in emergency response drills as part of training. Furthermore, MRC volunteers conduct community outreach and education on public health topics, provide administrative support for Prince William Health District clinics, provide data entry/research support, assist with translation during community health screening events, and much more!
