“File of Life”—A Free Program from Schuyler County

Every second counts during an emergency.  Schuyler County sponsors “File of Life”-- a free program for Seniors over 60 or anyone with medical conditions or disabilities--even children.

If you are a Schuyler County resident, you can receive a free magnetic File of Life packet to stick to your refrigerator.  The packet holds your personal medical information, which can be easily accessed by first responders—EMT’s, fire fighters, police-- in the event of an emergency.  This saves time—and possibly a life.

For more information about File of Life, contact Emergency Management of Schuyler County at 535-8200.  We would be glad to send you the necessary form and the packet.  If no one is in, please leave a message.
