Emergency Contacts Wallet Card — Free Printable
If you are hurt or taken ill away from home, a person to call is one of the first things anyone helping you will look for. This free emergency contacts card — an in-case-of-emergency (ICE) card — puts three people to call in your wallet, in order, with how each one is related to you and the best time to reach them. The back holds your doctor, your pharmacy, your own number and the language you speak. Print it at actual size, fill it in (pencil first, then pen), fold it once and it is the size of a bank card.

What it does
- The front: your name, then three people to call, in order — each with how they are related to you, a phone number, and an alternate number or the best time to reach them.
- The back: your doctor and your pharmacy with their numbers, your own phone number, the language you speak, and the date you last wrote the card.
- A worked example, pre-filled: one invented household's card, so you can see a finished one before you write anything.
- A sheet of four blank cards with cut marks and a fold line — one for your wallet, and spares for a bag, the car or a partner.
- A printer check: a box the exact size of a bank card and a 50 mm ruler, so you know the card prints at the right size before you cut.
- Cut, fold and laminate steps, and a reminder to rewrite the card and its date whenever a name or number changes.
- A records card, not a clinical one: it holds what you write on it and gives no medical advice.

Want the card that carries your medicines too?
This card holds the people to call. The full set holds everything else a responder or a relative would want to know, and you type it once: a fillable record fills 8 bank-card-size card designs. The wallet card lists your first 5 medicines, counts the rest and says how many more are on a 3-panel fold-out that carries medicines 6 to 16. The allergy card records each one as an allergy, an intolerance or an adverse drug reaction, with its severity. Every card carries an Updated date and a review-by date 6 months later. There are cards for conditions and implanted devices, for keys, pets and kids, for a child and for a caregiver, plus a half-page fridge sheet, a phone lock-screen card and a blank print-and-cut set — in US Letter and A4.
A one-time purchase you reprint whenever your medicines change. No account, no subscription, and nothing you type is uploaded.
A record-keeping card, not medical advice. It holds what you write on it; it contains no medical guidance, no doses and no clinical thresholds, and it is not a certified medical alert device or a substitute for a medical ID bracelet or your phone's own Medical ID. Every person and number in the worked example is invented. A filled-in card carries your personal information — anyone who finds your wallet can read it, so leave off anything you would not want a stranger to see, and shred cards you replace.
