The present invention relates to a system and method for documenting and communicating emergency and medical information specific to an individual, between the individual, care givers, and health care providers in an accurate, concise, and easy-to-use format to help insure more timely, safe, and effective health care and to avoid unnecessary delays and unsafe and incomplete medical care due to a lack of communication and information. Additionally, the information is documented at a single site, requires no specialized machinery to imprint or to read, is portable, inexpensive, and updated continuously by the individual user, care givers, and health care providers. The documentation and communication tool is to be taken by the individual to all physician visits, emergency room visits, hospital admissions, pharmacy visits, and is to be attached to the refrigerator inside the individual's home when not in use for easy access in emergency situations.
