What do nurses, retirees, students, technology professionals & others all have in common?
They’re the type of people you’ll encounter volunteering with the Rocky Mountain Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) of Colorado.
Don’t let the name fool you, our MRC includes people with no more med training than the ability to give a hug or apply pressure to a wound. Our volunteers come from every walk of life and every skill set.
You do NOT have to be in a medical profession
We need people to work behind the scenes in support positions – you can probably serve from home.
Volunteering is a simple and effective way to use your skills to help yourself, your family, friends and neighbors to be prepared for emergencies and disasters.
Volunteering gives you the satisfaction of helping others, a sense of purpose and meaning to your life. It also helps broaden your social network.
We offer many opportunities for you to share your skills and knowledge as well as learn new skills and abilities.
We offer comprehensive training if you want to try something new.
