The File of Life program was designed to help GEMS quickly obtain your medical and contact information in the event of an emergency. It consists of a refrigerator magnet labeled File of Life, with an attached red plastic pocket holding a card on which residents can record vital information about medical conditions, medications, and emergency contact names and phone numbers. Stick it on the outside of your refrigerator door. It could help save your life or the life of a loved one.

You can request a File of Life by mail, but if you don’t want to wait, you can download a File of Life (PDF) right now!
