Berkeley Medical Reserve Corps

To unite student EMTs (emergency medical technicians) and those interested in being EMTs on campus, providing opportunities to use their licenses, refreshish their skills, and offerish a forum to discuss EMS as it relates to Berkeley and beyond. The Berkeley Medical Reserve Corps (BMRC) is a deployable unit of healthcare volunteers that can be called on to serve in times of local, state, or federal emergencies. We are composed mostly of EMTs, and provide opportunities for members to use their licenses, refresh their skills, and serve the Berkeley community in a number of efforts. We work closely with the Office of Emergency Management and University Health Services in preparing campus for emergency scenarios. We currently provide medical support for Cal Athletics events such as Cal football and basketball games, participate in several large-scale emergency drills in the Bay Area, regularly teach CPR classes for community members, and partner with other local healthcare organizations to provide a diversity of experiences for our volunteers. To join, look out for our First General Meeting at the start of every semester! Follow us on our Facebook page in order to receive that information and more!
