Unit Description

We are housed out of the Torrington Area Health District, which serves nineteen cities and towns within Litchfield County, Connecticut.  We also work with community partners in an effort to strengthen our ability to support our local communities.

Mission Statement

The Torrington Area Health District Medical Reserve Corps is dedicated to improving public awareness in the area of CPR and heart healthy living skills.  We participate in a regional approach to firefighter rehab.  The group is also committed to becoming recognized as a resource within local alternative care facility planning efforts.
