What Is the Senior Emergency Preparedness Toolkit?
The Senior Emergency Preparedness Toolkit is a practical, printable and digital binder system built for seniors and the people who care for them. It helps families organize critical information so it’s ready when an emergency happens.
If you’ve ever had to answer questions during a hospital visit—medications, allergies, medical conditions, insurance details, who to call—this toolkit puts those answers in one place, in a format that’s easy to hand over and easy to update.
Why this matters in real life
Emergencies don’t give you time to “figure it out.” This is especially true when caring for a senior. Families are often asked for details they don’t have in front of them.
- What medications are they on, and what are the dosages?
- What allergies or conditions should staff know about?
- Who is the primary emergency contact (and backups)?
- Which providers, pharmacy, and insurance information are needed?
- Where are key legal documents stored?
