Membership
Membership in FEMORS is limited to
qualified individuals in the disaster mortuary community or others with
specialized skills who have a desire to serve their community in the time of
need.
FEMORS members activated for disaster
response serve as temporary employees of the Florida Department of Health and
are compensated based upon their assigned member classification. Activation is
generally limited to rotating two-week periods of work until the incident is
completed (two weeks of work followed by two weeks back at normal occupation).
