Request a File of Life

The File of Life is a card which contains vital personal medical information and is kept on the outside of your refrigerator in a bright red magnetic pocket, readily accessible to EMTs when they arrive on an emergency call.

The File of Life is a program that encourages residents to keep track of vital medical information, allowing emergency responders to access this information.

Keep the “file” of information in a visible, obvious location in their homes. Possible locations include:

On the outside of a refrigerator
On a medicine cabinet
On an interior residential metal door (the type found in an assisted living center)

When using the File of Life:

Record information in pencil. Updates and revisions may be necessary, as information is only useful if it is updated frequently. Be sure to maintain current information regarding medication and dosages.
The File of Life is not a valid DNR (Do Not Resuscitate) order.
