Disaster training group seeks volunteers

A Medical Reserve Corps representative will be available today from 10:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on the third floor of University Tower for anyone interested in becoming an MRC volunteer.

MRC volunteers can be current or retired members in their profession. Valuable skill positions being sought include: nurses, physicians, pharmacists, dentists, EMTs, medical technicians, psychiatrists, psychologists, therapists, drug and alcohol counselors, social workers and veterinarians.

Active MRC volunteers serve during disasters and also may help with flu clinics, children’s health and immunization campaigns, health fairs, safety expos and patient education. They also assist first responders at the College World Series first aid stations.

For more information, contact Tom McMahon at tmcmahon@UWMidlands.org or 522-7970.
