What
is it?
Vital personal and medical information readily accessible in the home in
case of emergency. The vial itself is a standard
plastic prescription
bottle containing a form that gives the
person’s name, doctor,
information on medical history and
medications, and whom to notify. It
is taped to the upper
right hand shelf of the refrigerator.
For Whom?
Individuals who live alone, senior citizens, or anyone who wishes to
provide for their care in case of fire, sudden illness, or other
emergency.
How?
A Red Heart decal on the refrigerator door lets emergency personnel know
the resident has a Vial of Life.
