Phone Numbers for Your Medicine Cabinet
Always keep the names and phone numbers of all of your family doctors taped inside your medicine cabinet as well as next to one of your phones. In addition, include the number for United States Poison Control Centers, 1-800-222-1222. You might also want to write in important information about any medical conditions your family members may have, such as allergies, and any medications that your family members are taking in case someone outside of your family, such as a baby-sitter, needs to call the paramedics.
