Everything about your kids lives in your head. Put a copy on the fridge.
An Emergency Card is one printed page that holds what anyone caring for your kids needs to know. The pediatrician. The peanut allergy. Which inhaler, how many puffs. Who is allowed to pick them up.
412 Kalaheo Ave, Kailua
An Emergency Card, ready for the fridge. One row per person.
One printed page that lives on your fridge, so anyone caring for your kids knows what to do before they can reach you.
Three steps, about fifteen minutes
Answer the questions once. Everything after that is printing and updating.
Complete the questionnaire
One section at a time. Your household, your kids, doctors and insurance, and the adults you trust. It saves as you type.
Print your Emergency Card
One page, one row per person, a QR code each. You choose who gets their own row.
Put it on the fridge
When a dose or a sitter changes, update it online. The codes keep pointing at the current version.
How much of it is only in your head?
Nine questions, two minutes, no account. You get a Kids Safety Score out of 100 and the exact list of what a babysitter could not find without you.
It ends in the same place: every gap it finds is a question in the questionnaire, and the questionnaire prints your Emergency Card.
One page on the fridge. A QR code for everything else.
Paper works when the wifi is down, the phone is dead, and the person in your kitchen has never been there before. The QR code is what makes the paper worth keeping.
The first sixty seconds, in print
Your address for the dispatcher, both parents' cells, and each person's allergies and medicines.
Everyone on it gets their own code
Scan Ellie's code and you get Ellie. Doses and timing, the pediatrician, insurance, her routine, and who is cleared to pick her up.
Update it without reprinting it
New dose, new sitter, new insurance card. Change it online and the code on the fridge already points at the new version.
No app to download. It opens in their browser.
The hard days are rarely the ones you saw coming.
You plan for what you can picture. What actually goes wrong is the thing nobody wrote down, on the day the person who knows it cannot be reached.
You are the only copy
The dose, the doctor, the allergy, the pickup rules. One person carries all of it, and that person is usually Mom.
You are not there when it matters
That is what makes it an emergency. Someone else has your kids and needs an answer before they can reach you.
It was never one document
It is forty small facts spread across your phone, the school portal, a text thread, and your memory.
You already write this down. Just never in one place.
Every one of these makes you build the same list again from memory. Build it once instead.
Back to school
Three forms per kid, all asking for the same contacts and medical history.
A new babysitter
You write half of it on a sticky note and text the rest from the restaurant.
A weekend away
The one trip you take for yourself, and you spend Thursday night writing instructions.
Grandparents have the kids
They would rather not call to ask, so they guess, or they wait.
Field trips and camp
Another packet, another signature, another copy of the insurance card.
The urgent care visit
Standing at a counter trying to remember the exact dose and the last tetanus shot.
Start with your kids. They are the easiest yes.
Once their card is on the fridge, the same gap is obvious everywhere else you look.
Your partner
Half of this lives with only one of you. A shared card means either parent can answer any question.
Yourself
You are the one person you never write down. If it were you in the ambulance, your family would be guessing.
Your parents
The conversation you keep meaning to have gets much easier when you can open with the one you already made.
This is your family's medical information. It stays that way.
Emergency Contact is part of SupportNow, the Official Family Support Platform.
Make the one page your family would need tomorrow.
Answer the questionnaire once, print it, and stop rewriting it every time someone new watches your kids.
