Volunteer to Make a Difference
When you sign up for the Ohio Medical Reserve Corps, you become an identified professional resource. When an emergency occurs, you will be notified when and where to respond and will make a difference in Coshocton County.
Why?
The need for trained supplemental healthcare personnel to assist with emergency operations was highlighted after the terrorist attacks of 2001 and the hurricanes of 2005. Many medical and public health professionals sought to support emergency relief efforts, but there was no organized approach to channel their willingness to help.
Who is Needed?
All healthcare professionals: physicians, nurses, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, pharmacists, pharmacy interns, dentists, LPNs, veterinarians, retired healthcare professionals.
