Ohio Revised Code 121.404 provides liability protection to registered Ohio Citizen Corp (including Ohio Medical Reserve Corp) volunteers during local, state or federally declared emergencies, disasters, drills and trainings. It is necessary to complete the entire registration process to be eligible for liability protection.
