My folder for my husband included a list of all medications, dosage, and prescribing doctor. Once when he needed an ambulance the emt was very pleased that I had that, and suggested that I also make up a health history sheet, which I did.

In the folder were copies of his POA document and healthcare directive. Also documents concerning his intention to donate his brain to a research project.

He had Lewy Body Dementia, which is not always known by medical professionals. The folder had several copies of basic information about the disease, aimed at ER staff. I gave one to an ER doctor who seemed very interested in it. It included a list of drugs he absolutely should not be given. (This was produced by the LBD Association.)

There was also a checklist I found on line somewhere of ADL's, to indicate his current baseline.
