Profile:
The Bosque School MRC is developing out the school's need for a medical response system for students and faculty. The MRC volunteers will operate under the supervision of a medical director. The group is recognized by the Bosque School, and will have ten members ages 16-18. In addition to providing medical response to students and faculty, the MRC intends to meet the following goals: to provide opportunities for members to learn about medical professions; to participate in public health outreach and emergency response activities; to establish a First Responders class for faculty and students; and to assist the New Mexico Department of Health and the Albuquerque Area MRC in emergency response activities and public health outreach activities. We also aim to provide educational opportunities for members via medical direction. In the state of New Mexico it is possible to become an EMT First Responder at the age of 16 and an EMT Basic at 17. Upon receiving licensure, MRC members will serve as the medical element for our school athletic programs. The Bosque MRC will also serve as a contact for anyone at Bosque School interested in pursuing EMT licensure.
