About Us
What We Do
The MRC fills in the gaps during large-scale events when first responders and resources get spread thin. Our well-trained volunteers offer support that allows emergency professionals to serve as required.
The Hendricks County Medical Reserve Corps (HCMRC) provides citizens an organized system for volunteering during a large-scale emergency such as a pandemic, natural disaster, or act of terrorism. Our volunteers work to improve the overall health and well being of our communities by engaging in public health initiatives and community service throughout the year.
Vision
Support the Hendricks County public health initiatives, lead community health-related programs, and enhance the medical and emergency response capability of Hendricks County.
Mission
Recruit, train, and retain a volunteer roster of medical and non-medical professionals who are willing to contribute their skills and expertise in response to public health initiatives, community educational needs, and threats that may affect the citizens of Hendricks County.
Values
1. Community: We honor the community-based nature of the MRC and recognize and encourage the spirit of volunteerism within the Hendricks County community and HCMRC.
