Who this sheet helps
This sheet may help residents, adult children, spouses, family caregivers, assisted living contacts, long-distance caregivers, respite helpers, and trusted family members who need to locate resident information quickly.
Why this may matter in an emergency
Information may live in several places: facility records, family folders, patient portals, medication records, pharmacy notes, and clinician offices.
A concise sheet can help family members, facility contacts, EMS, urgent care, or ER teams locate contacts and records faster, but it does not replace facility or clinician documentation.
Assisted living handoff notes
Handoff notes can identify contacts and record locations. Avoid facility-policy instructions, care-plan interpretation, medical instructions, medication administration directions, or compliance advice.
Who at the facility and in the family can help confirm current information
Where facility records, care plans, medication administration records, and clinician documents are kept
Whether glasses, hearing aids, dentures, walker, wheelchair, communication supports, or equipment paperwork should be located
Which family member, clinician office, pharmacy, or facility contact should be reached for current records
Where to keep it
Keep copies where trusted people know to look: family emergency folder, resident folder, caregiver binder, appointment folder, go-bag, or with a trusted family member.
Coordinate with the resident and appropriate facility contacts before placing paper copies in shared spaces. Avoid unnecessary sensitive details on visible copies.
When to update it
Review the sheet when family contacts, facility contacts, doctors, pharmacy, medications, allergies, conditions, mobility, communication, equipment, room, care-plan location, facility record location, or patient portal details change.
Privacy and safety notes
Assisted living information can be sensitive. Share only what is useful for emergency organization and keep fuller records where the resident, family, and facility contacts agree they belong.
This page is for organization and emergency preparedness only. It is not medical advice, legal advice, facility compliance advice, medication administration guidance, or facility-policy guidance and does not replace 911, EMS, clinicians, medical records, medication labels, care plans, facility records, medication administration records, patient portals, legal documents, or professional guidance.
Printable sheet versus digital YourEMR profile
A digital YourEMR profile may help when family contacts, facility contacts, doctors, medications, allergies, equipment notes, support needs, or document locations change. The profile can be updated and reprinted.
Helpful terms families may hear
Facility contact: The assisted living office, nurse, care coordinator, or other contact the family has been told to use.
Resident information: Basic identifying, contact, and support information about the resident.
MAR: Medication administration record; the sheet should point to official records rather than replacing or interpreting them.

Family handoff: Short notes that help family and trusted contacts find current records and contacts.
