Who this sheet helps

This sheet may be useful for people living alone, older adults, people with communication differences, people with mobility needs, people using home medical equipment, parents, caregivers, and families coordinating care across households.

Why this may matter during an EMS handoff

A person may be unable to answer questions, a caregiver may not be present, or a family member may not know every medication or doctor. A readable sheet can help point people toward current contacts and records.

There is no promise that every responder will use a printed sheet. The goal is to organize emergency information, not to control care.

Ambulance and EMS handoff notes

Handoff notes should describe contacts, communication support, equipment names, and where updated documents are kept. Avoid treatment requests, device operation directions, medication instructions, or emergency-response steps.

  • Preferred caregiver or family contact and backup contact
  • Where current medication, allergy, care plan, or device-card information is kept
  • Communication, hearing, vision, mobility, or sensory context that helps others understand how the person usually shares information
  • Home notes that are safe to share, such as a trusted key holder rather than a visible door code

Where to keep it

Keep a copy where trusted people know to look, such as a refrigerator folder, emergency binder, bedside folder, wallet, purse, go-bag, or caregiver folder.

Avoid putting full passwords, financial information, Social Security numbers, or direct door codes on a visible copy.

When to update it

Review the sheet when contacts, address, doctors, pharmacy, medications, allergies, conditions, mobility, communication needs, equipment, caregiver roles, or document locations change.

Privacy and safety notes

This page is for emergency information organization and preparedness only. It is not medical advice, legal advice, EMS instructions, or emergency-response guidance and does not replace 911, EMS assessment, emergency services, clinicians, medical records, medical ID programs, medication labels, device manuals, care plans, patient portals, or professional guidance.

Printable sheet versus digital YourEMR profile

A digital YourEMR profile may help when contacts, medicines, allergies, suppliers, and caregiver notes change often. The printable sheet can serve as a quick backup while the digital profile stays easier to update.

Helpful terms families may hear

  • EMS: Emergency medical services, such as emergency responders and ambulance teams.
  • Medical ID: A wearable, phone-based, card-based, or program-based way to point to important health information.

Ambulance / EMS Sheet details to record

Use short factual notes that help identify the person, contact the right caregiver, and locate current medical basics. Do not use the sheet to tell EMS what care to provide.

  • Full name, date of birth, home address, preferred name, and language or communication notes
  • Emergency contacts, preferred caregiver contact, backup contact, and trusted nearby contact
  • Current medication list location, allergies, high-level conditions, doctors, specialists, pharmacy, and supplier contacts
  • Mobility, sensory, speech, hearing, vision, equipment, and caregiver context that may help others understand the person's usual needs
