EMERGENCY MEDICAL INFORMATION BOOK


The “Emergency Medical Information Book” project has been extended to all states of Australia and New Zealand. This project allows Rotary clubs to actively support their local community by distributing books to all persons who may need to call an ambulance.

Because the book contains specific information in relation to a persons medical history or condition, list of medications or allergies and personal details, Paramedics are able to quickly identify a person’s condition with access to a patient’s medical history.

This process could allow emergency treatment to start immediately, which could save lives. Clubs wishing to articipate in the scheme can purchase batches of 250 books bearing their own club details on the covers from the contact noted below. It may well be that individual clubs may decide to defray expenses by seeking a small cash donation from interested parties.
