Medical Binder

About this download

Family Medical Binder: one calm, organized place for your whole family's health records. Built for real life, from a sudden emergency room visit to a chronic illness you need doctors to take seriously, and for caregivers managing care for a parent, a partner, or a child.

This is a comprehensive 80 page medical binder, and you get BOTH versions in one purchase:

• A genuinely fillable PDF: click any line or box and type on your computer, phone, or tablet, then save.
• A print and write PDF: print only the pages you need and fill them in by pen.

BUILT FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY

The per person records pack is one clean template. Print one copy for each family member and write their name at the top, so it works for a family of two or a family of six, with no wasted pages and no fixed limit on how many people you track.

WHAT MAKES THIS ONE DIFFERENT

• A real emergency layer: a two page Emergency Medical Summary, an About Me page for when you cannot speak for yourself, a Family Emergency Plan, when to call 911 guidance, an Appointment Brief you can hand to a busy doctor, and cut out wallet cards.
• Overprovisioned space: long medication lists, dedicated blood pressure, glucose, weight, and cholesterol logs, a weekly pill schedule, and multiple symptom and tracking pages, so you never run out of room.
• The legal and planning set done right: advance directives, a what matters most values page, health care and financial powers of attorney, HIPAA authorization, document locator, and final wishes, with plain language notes on the difference between a living will, a power of attorney, and a DNR or POLST.
• Whole person and whole family: mental and behavioral health, dental and vision, functional and mobility status, plus a full children's section (birth history, well child visits and growth, developmental milestones, sick day guidance, and school health).
