Who this printable is for
This printable is for people who want key emergency contacts and document locations available during local driving, appointments, errands, road trips, or caregiver transportation.
Why this may matter in an emergency
When someone is away from home, contacts and medical basics may be harder for family, urgent care, ER, EMS, or travel companions to locate.
A glove box sheet can serve as a backup, but it should not say that first responders will always check the glove box or use the sheet.
Glove box handoff notes
Handoff notes can point to contacts and fuller records. Do not include treatment instructions, triage instructions, vehicle safety directions, legal claims, or responder instructions.
Who is traveling with the person or who should be called first
Where the medication list, allergy list, medical ID, insurance card, travel folder, or fuller emergency sheet is kept
Which caregiver, family member, or travel companion can confirm current details
Which details should stay out of the car copy because a vehicle may be shared, serviced, or broken into
Where to keep it
Keep the sheet in a glove box, vehicle emergency folder, travel pouch, medical go-bag, or caregiver transportation folder if the person chooses to keep a vehicle copy.
Do not assume every responder or helper will check a specific location. Tell trusted people where the current sheet and fuller records are kept.
When to update it
Review the sheet before travel, after changing vehicles, or when contacts, doctors, pharmacy, medications, allergies, document locations, or travel companions change.
Remove outdated copies so the vehicle does not carry conflicting information.
Privacy and safety notes
A vehicle copy may be seen by other people or left in a parked car. Include only what is useful and safe to store there.
Avoid passwords, full Social Security numbers, financial account numbers, door codes, or unnecessary sensitive details on a visible copy.

Printable sheet versus digital YourEMR profile
A digital YourEMR profile can hold fuller details that change over time, such as contacts, medications, allergies, doctors, document locations, caregiver roles, and privacy choices. Update the profile and print a fresh copy when something changes.
