Emergency Details

Phones

List emergency phone numbers such as your doctor, plumber, family and friends.

 

Credit Cards

List your credit card details and company information, in particular the number to call to cancel the card or report it stolen.

 

Financial

Store bank and insurance company information.

 

Identification

List personal identification information (e.g. social security, medical insurance, driver's license).

 

Other

List other information and reminders that might be useful in an emergency such as medications, family member allergies, the address of your child's school, and pet information. The advantage of this section is that you can use it to note any information that does not directly fit under the other headings.

 

Don't forget to store images with your emergency information. Emergency organizations recommend that you store images of loved ones and pets so that if you become separated you will have a ready image to print and distribute. See Attaching Media for more details.
