Primary Care Information

One of the most unfortunate events that could happen is when a family member is admitted to the emergency room. But what could make the situation worst is if your family member had preconditions, medications, allergies that you were not made fully aware of.

It is import for family members to designate an area or location that has basic information on each family member and that all family members know where to look for that information.

Some information you may need to have are:

1. Family Member's Primary Care Physicians name and phone number
2. Current list of medications and dosage and purpose of those medications
3. Known allergies
4. List of current medical conditions (i.e. diabetes type I)
5. Medical Insurance Name, phone number, and membership identification number.

This information could be the difference between life and death.
