In medical emergencies, when every second counts, the "File of Life" (FOL) magnet serves as a critical link between patients and first responders.  This simple yet powerful tool—typically a bright magnetic pouch placed on the refrigerator—contains a form with essential medical information, including the patient's name, age, emergency contacts, existing conditions like diabetes or heart disease, current medications, allergies, and doctor's details along with current advance directive form(s). 

For first responders, this immediate access to accurate health records can mean the difference between life and death, especially when patients are unconscious, confused, or unable to communicate.  By eliminating guesswork, the File of Life helps Paramedics and EMTs avoid dangerous medication errors, speeds up treatment, and ensures proper care for vulnerable individuals like seniors or those with chronic illnesses. 

If you are interested in receiving a FREE File of Life, please stop by Livermore Fire Station 1 (311 W. CR 74E, Livermore, CO) on Mondays between the hours of 9am-3pm.
