Critical info at a glance
If someone had to step into your life for a day — a grown child, a neighbor, a first responder — this is the one page they'd reach for in the first hour. Fill it in, keep it current, and store it where a trusted person can find it.
What the page covers
In a real emergency, the same questions come up first: who do we call, what conditions and medications matter, what coverage exists, and where are the documents? This free one-page printable answers them at a glance, so no one has to hunt through a house — or a grieving mind — to find them.
- Who to call first — two emergency contacts and one out-of-area anchor everyone checks in with.
- Medical snapshot — the allergies, conditions, medications, and blood type a paramedic asks for first.
- Coverage & policy numbers — health, home, auto, and life, with the claim line on the back of each card.
- Where the papers live — will, IDs, deeds, the account list, and the safe.
