We are looking for members to join MRC GEM (Medical Reserve Corps). Our members come from all walks of life and are not limited to the medical and health professions. We train once a month, usually the 3rd Saturday of the month. See our web site at https://mrcgem.com for more detailed information.
Our goals for our members are:
1. learn and practice how to be safe and secure in times of disaster.
2. learn to extend that safety and security to your loved ones.
3. learn and practice how to be safe when helping others.
4. learn and practice how to effectively help others.
If you achieve only the first of these goals, you are well on your way to becoming an empowered citizen instead of a victim who needs to be rescued.
By learning to take care of yourself, you're one less person the first responders need to worry about.
If you can also help others, you are that special shining light guiding those others through trying times to safety and security.
