Gloucester County Medical Reserve Corps

In the event of a public health emergency, volunteers are our most valuable resource.

The mission of the Gloucester County Medical Reserve Corp (GCMRC) is to improve the health and safety of communities by organizing and utilizing public health, medical, and other volunteers.  The overarching goal of the GCMRC is to enhance the community’s emergency preparedness by ensuring that a trained group of healthcare professionals and community volunteers are ready to respond to public health emergencies.  Anyone with an interest in health issues can volunteer.   We need licensed or certified healthcare professionals, practicing or retired, living or working in Gloucester County, but we also need community volunteers such as interpreters, chaplains, social workers, and support staff.  Such duties might include:

• Direct patient care
• Administrative or secretarial duties
• Translation or reception duties

Volunteers need to be aware that they will be required to participate in training and education in order to be adequately prepared should an event occur. Volunteers are asked to perform duties in accord to their interests, training, and experience. Whether it is a medical emergency, natural disaster, terrorist incident, or even a routine immunization clinic, we provide FREE TRAINING to our volunteers to ensure support for our local health agencies when called upon.
