The vial of life project is formed to benefit the elders of the community.
When EMT's arrive at the home, they will need certain medical information that the person, considering the condition, may not be able to provide.
We are going to host a luncheon at the Southside Baptist Church in Star City, Arkansas, where the vials will be distributed to people over the age of 60.
We hope that if they are in need of medical assistance, the information in the vials will assist the paramedics in providing accurate medical attention.
EMT's rescueing someone's life.
Emergency Medical Technicians help save lives, but in certain common situations, they run out of time and the person may not be revitalized. These deaths could and can be prevented with the help of "The Vial of Life."
When you go to the hospital or the paramedics are called to your home, the vital medical information stored in the vial will "speak" or provide important information for you when you are unable.
EMT's or Paramedics will know that when they see the Vial of Life decal on your front door that there is a complete form of medical information about you on your refrigerator door.
In emergency cases, the vial of life may be your only hope.
* On the Video and vial Form you can find a copy of the Vial of Life form and a pair of Vial of Life stickers to print out and store for future or present use
