• Past Medical History

• Current Medications
• Allergies
• Emergency Contact Information
• Special Information such as Advanced Directives, Powers Of Attorney and the like.  

     There are forms and stickers are available at The EMS station at no charge. We also have additional copies of the forms in the event your medications or medical history should change. We will also be passing them out to the public at events such as the Owen County Fair, The Apple Butter Festival, and many other gatherings. Please feel free to approach us at any time for as many packets as you might need.

     We would also be happy to speak at any gathering or meeting that you might have.
