Description

A 3-ring organizer for the entire family's vital medical data.

This remarkably user-friendly organizer ensures that accurate medical records for every member of the family, especially children, are carefully filed and readily available. Parents simply must be proactive to prevent medical mixups of any kind -- including allergic reactions to misdiagnosed medications.

Your Family Health Organizer has a separate section for each family member. Charts in each section allow all pertinent information to be logged, and color-coded tabs allow for quick reference. The 3-ring binder is just the right format for easy filing and accessibility, and it's small enough for portability. It's easy to transfer information, too. For example, the section for one child can easily be removed and left with a babysitter.

The organizer provides space for recording all the family's medical information, including:

  • Birth details
  • Identification profiles, allowing for fingerprints of each person for security and safety
  • Medications prescribed and any reactions to them
  • Wellness checkups, immunizations, doctor's appointments
  • Tracking information for each child's growth and other milestones
  • Tracking information for baby teeth, dental appointments and results
  • Dates and other details of hospital stays.

This organizer accommodates two parents and as many as three children. Convenient plastic zippered pockets allow for filing of all insurance cards, appointment cards and other loose items.

About the author

Jodie Pappas created this organizer to record the ongoing treatments after one of her twin girls was born with a medical condition that required extensive care. Each of the many doctors and specialists kept different records, and Pappas needed a single place to keep track of medical information for her entire family.

With the recent tornados in Alabama and flooding across parts of the country, I have started thinking about ways I can be better prepared for emergencies. I am really not an organized person, so I am excited about using Your Family Health Organizer binder by Jodie Pappas to help get myself more prepared. This is a 3 ring binder with tabbed sections for 2 adults and 3 children. Each section has a pocket for any special prescriptions or papers that you need to keep handy. Plus there are checklists for medications, medical history, dental, eye and ear records. For the children there are growth charts and checklists for developmental milestones. Each section has a page for family history and records of doctors visits and appointments. At the back of the binder, there are plastic pockets for insurance and social security cards, plus a larger ziploc type bag that I may use for birth certificates. Each of the pages are hole punched so you can easily remove them as needed. If your child has special prescriptions or medical directions that need to be followed, you can take the page out and leave it with a care giver or school nurse.

What a great concept.... I love that the size is compact enough to carry in a purse to and from doctors' offices, and even pack for a family vacation.
