The objective of the Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) program is to strengthen communities by establishing a system for medical and public health volunteers to offer their assistance and expertise to existing medical and emergency service providers during times of community need. It is the intention of the Sudbury Board of Selectmen and Board of Health (BOH) to establish a Medical Reserve Corps (MRC) Executive Committee that will build a “community-based” MRC infrastructure through which the EC and volunteers can be recruited, credentialed, organized, and trained to assist in the town of Sudbury’s response to local public health crisis. It is the intention of the Selectmen and BOH that the MRC unit will supplement existing local medical emergency preparedness and public health capabilities.
