In an emergency, time is crucial. The “Vial of Life” outline enables emergency responders to quickly locate helpful information regarding your medical history.
Emergency responders, firefighters, paramedics, and police are trained to look for the Vial of Life sticker and obtain information from the Vial.
The information normally contains:
- A Vial in which to store the Medical Information Form and any advanced directive form you wish to include.
- A Medical Information Form – complete this form and place it in a prominent place in your loved ones’ home.
- We encourage you to enlist the help of medical personnel to ensure accuracy.
