Registering as a Maine Responds (ESAR-VHP*) volunteer will help ensure that people affected by a disaster will receive the public health services and medical care they need. Registration is the first step in meeting this urgent need within Maine and across the U.S.
MaineResponds.org allows you to register as willing to provide services during a disaster or emergency situation - and to be covered under state and federal protections for liability when deployed as a part of the official state emergency response force. Never self deploy! By operating within our organization, you can ensure that you are able to assist your neighbors both safely and productively.
The State of Maine manages this database through Maine CDC's Public Health Emergency Preparedness office. The registry collects basic information about you, your professional skills, and information regarding your current professional credentials. We respect your data and your rights to privacy, and this information will only be used to support emergency preparedness and response activities as they relate to public health and healthcare issues.
