In an emergency situation, searching for the right information can waste valuable time and resources. Preparing in advance will help you navigate more smoothly when life's curveballs come your way.
If you are creating a medical summary for a loved one (or yourself), make sure to include information such as:
- height and weight
- blood type
- allergies
- past diagnoses
- surgical history
- full family history
- medical team contact list
- full list of medications
- insurance information
You can also save time and download our Medical Organizer template, which documents this information and more.
Storing the information in a digital file can make it easier to access the information from a smartphone (e.g. via Google Sheets).
