Emergency File Allows Mum to Be Prepared in a Flash
Hurricane, flood, fire, toxic spill, terror threat - emergencies requiring quick escape are an unfortunate reality, as are missing family members and death. According to a 2004 survey conducted by the Wirthlin Group, fewer than two in 10 adults characterized themselves as being prepared for a sudden emergency.
"Emergencies happen when you're on the run," said Boca Raton mom Lisa Marton, whose personal experience with disaster led the former strategic planning and marketing executive to admit that she didn't have her own family ready to face adversity. High profile missing children cases in the news frightened her into action. Surely, she thought, if someone skilled in strategic planning didn't have order on the home front, others must struggle as well.
Marton went online to look for a product to organize her vital data and found nothing. After consulting experts in software and digital security she created an organizational tool for families, a digital and portable connection to all the information a family needs to survive. The result: the Emergency File USB Flash Key.
The Emergency File Flash Key gives the best defense against disaster. Having emergency information organized and readily available facilitates a faster response time by medical, emergency services and insurance personnel.
With self-contained software to aid in storing, transporting and retrieving emergency information, vital data is attached to your key ring - the first thing you grab when heading out the door, readily accessible to you and no one else. All data is secure through password protection and data encryption.
An easy-to-use interface guides the entering of:
- Family members' vital statistics, medical histories and recent photos
- Emergency contacts
- Insurance policies
- Financial documents
- Photos of house, cars and belongings for insurance claims
- Important documents such as resumes and letters of
recommendation, to allow for a new start, if necessary
Print Wizard provides pre-formatted:
- Medical ID cards
- Child ID cards, including a checklist for what to do if a
child is missing
- Missing person or pet flyers printed without delay
- Printout of Emergency File information for storage in
organizational binder
For added safety, Emergency File has an online Complete Access(TM) Web Program (http://www.emergencyfile.com/). This highly-secure, encrypted web- accessible program makes Emergency File information available via a protected account, where data is safely retained. Complete Access users can view emergency information anytime, anywhere. Multiple family keys can be synchronized with the click of a button.
Have peace of mind by being prepared to respond quickly to emergencies. The anti-shock, water-resistant flash key plugs into a USB port on any PC (Windows XP and 2000), and with a user name and password, life is recovered.
