| Profile: |
The Cuyahoga County MRC unit was established in 2006 to support the local public health departments in their emergency preparedness initiatives. The MRC serves the City of Cleveland and surrounding 58 municipalities/villages/townships in the County. The MRC program is administered by Cuyahoga County Board of Health.
More than 500 medical and non-medical professionals who have acted on a desire to volunteer their time and expertise during emergencies in our County. The MRC has promoted its mission, established its policies, procedures, and protocols regarding operations and conducted recruiting initiatives within the medical community and the community at large. The unit is preparing to provide staffing at Point of Dispensing clinics during a mass immunization or prophylaxis campaign.
