Have you ever had to go to the hospital unexpectedly. Better yet, have you had to go accompanying a loved one who could not communicate their health history? Well, enter the technology age. Store your information electronically. Genesis Health Systems has eHealth that allows you to do just that. You might choose to do it through your pharmacy’s site such as Walgreens.
Or you might choose to do it yourself in a word processor or spread sheet. If you do that, be sure to note any medications including:
- vitamins
- aspirin
- herbal supplements
- past illnesses
- past surgeries
- allergies
- medical conditions
- family health history
A little thought now could save your life– or the life of someone you love.
