The Medical Reserve Corps is part of the Wildcat Region which includes Geary, Riley and Pottawatomie Counties.

The Health Department Director in Geary County, Pat Hunter, explained in the past this program existed in Junction City, but it is now taking on a regional flavor. “We’re now trying to set a formal process in place so that if any kind of incident ever happens we will have people from different communities helping each other out.”

Volunteers are needed in all three counties.

There will be an orientation session at the Geary County Health department January 12th from 5:15 to 6:30 p.m.
