DMCRT has five teams of people who work to make Dalhousie a safer and healthier community.

 

The Executive

 

The Executive is responsible for the operation of all aspects of the society, from training members to organizing first aid sessions open to the Dalhousie community. The Executive is elected by all DMCRT members at the Annual General Meeting in March.

 

Director of Communications

Sara Greenough

Hey everyone! My name is Sara and I am excited to be our team's Director of Communications for this year! This is my third year on the team, having previously been a VMR and DS. I am currently in the 4th year of my Bachelor of Science in Medical Sciences with a certificate in human physiology. As the Director of Communications, I'm looking forward to ensuring clear and open communication throughout our team, with our partners, and with the community. I love being on shift but if you ever find me away from the team, I'm often either playing my piano, orienteering around Halifax, or working in the lab. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or stop me and say hi if you see me around campus!

Director of operations

Kaitlyn Blakney

Hi there! My name is Kaitlyn Blakney, and I am so excited to return as the DMCRT's Director of Operations for a second term! I had the privilege of being the Director of Operations during the 2023-2024 academic year, and I am grateful for the opportunity to continue in the role again this year. I am a fourth-year Microbiology and Immunology student with a minor in Health Studies. I grew up in Kingston, Ontario and moved to Halifax for university. Outside of studying and the DMCRT, you'll find me at the gym, hiking, swimming, travelling, or taking care of my 50+ houseplants. I'm looking forward to increasing the DMCRT's services on campus and interacting with more community members during the 2024-2025 academic year. If you see me around campus, please say hi! :)

Hi everyone! I am very excited to be Director of Personnel for 2024-25! A little bit about me, I'm from Halifax and I'm going into my fourth year of Microbiology and Immunology.

Director of Resource Management

Ella Uren

Hi friends! My name is Ella and I am beyond excited to be your Director of Resource Management for the 2024-2025 school year. I am currently in my third year of a Bachelor of Science in Medical Sciences. I was on the DMCRT for one year as a VMR before joining the Executive Team. When I’m not volunteering, I enjoy anything outdoors including hiking, swimming, and camping. I’m looking forward to ensuring that the team has all the resources to make this a successful year, and that includes lots of fun card games! If you see me around campus don’t hesitate to come say hi, I love meeting new people :)

The Patient Volunteer Program

Patient volunteers are a critical component of our ongoing training sessions. Patient volunteers receive mock patient scenarios from the training department, which they learn and bring to our first aid training sessions. While volunteers will not practice first aid, they gain valuable experience as our responders take a patient history or non-invasive vitals during scenarios. This program allows insight into the roles and responsibilities of a Volunteer Medical Responder and the operations of the DMCRT. If you are interested in joining, please email patientvolunteers@dmcrt.ca
