| Profile: |
The Marion County MRC is housed within Marion Public Health. The primary focus of the MRC is to respond to emergencies when the public's health is threatened. This includes working mass clinic operations, assisting in shelters, or providing other medical services as needed. To stay active during non-emergency times, the MRC works to help improve the health and well being of Marion County residents by conducting health screenings, providing immunizations, and developing strategies to address the US Surgeon General's public health priorities.
