Minnesota Radiation Emergency Volunteers (MREV)
The Minnesota Department of Health, in partnership with the Minnesota Responds Medical Reserve Corps, has developed a registry for radiation professionals willing to assist with population monitoring during incidents involving radiation. The registry is called the Minnesota Radiation Emergency Volunteers (MREV). Volunteers have the opportunity to receive training, participate in drills, and serve as resource in a radiological emergency.
