When faced with a medical emergency, every second counts. Healthcare professionals frequently must wrestle with the dilemma of providing urgent treatment to patients whose medical histories and medications are unknown. Precious moments slip away while doctors and nurses determine the best course of action. By using our Health Passports, you can avoid such a frightening scenario for yourself and your loved ones.

When choosing to purchase a "Health Passport" please consider the following:

There is no central medical database that contains your health information. Any time you visit a new physician or facility, they must either wait for your primary care physician to deliver your records during office hours, or gather the information from scratch. Our "Health Passports" allow you to keep all of this information readily available.

Should your child require medical treatment in your absence, he or she may only receive such care with written authorization from you. By utilizing the Medical Consent form included in My Child's Health and I.D. Records, you can have peace of mind that your child will receive needed medical attention when under the care of a trusted relative or guardian.

Many elderly people take multiple medications, both prescription and OTC (over the counter).My Health and Medications Records affords patients the ability to track their prescriptions in accurate detail, avoiding dangerous medical treatment mistakes.

Filling out medical information forms takes time and presence of mind — both of which can be short in an emergency situation. Having an up-to-date Adult Health, I.D. and Medical Records or My Child's Health and I.D. Records on hand can relieve you of this burden, so that your loved one may receive your undivided attention.

Physician contact information kept at home is not enough when you are away from home and need to make an urgent appointment for yourself or your child. Memorizing the numbers of primary care physicians also may be inadequate, if a tooth is broken or your primary doctor has the day off. Entries for Specialists and Other Providers in the "Health Passports" keep all of these names and numbers at your fingertips whenever they are needed.

Children’s milestone moments often slip from the minds of busy parents long before treasured baby books are unwrapped for use. The pages devoted to Developmental Milestones as well as Growth Statistics and Percentiles in the Child Health Passport offer a convenient way to record these cherished events as they occur, so that they may be copied in a memory book at a later date when time allows.

My Blood Pressure and Cholesterol Health Records as well as Records of My Blood Glucose Levels offer those persons who need to closely monitor their blood pressure, cholesterol or blood glucose levels associated with Heart Disease or Diabetes a convenient and easy to use "health Passport"
