Emergency Response Contacts and Information.
The ER Card connects a card you carry to the identity, contacts, and details verified responders need when you can't speak for yourself.
From a card in your wallet to information a responder can use.
Members prepare their information ahead of time. Verified responders can access it when The ER Card is found during an emergency.
