Emergency Contact Checklist

Saying yes to being someone's emergency contact is easy. Knowing what to actually do is harder.

Most emergency contacts find out what they're responsible for in the middle of the emergency. That's the worst possible time to be figuring out where your spare key is, who your doctor is, or who is going to care for your pet while you’re in the hospital.

This checklist covers the information your emergency contact needs before anything happens, not during. Your personal and medical information, and who to contact next.

Give it to them now, while nothing is wrong. That's what makes it useful later.
