Night-time medical emergency: when the SAMU asks for your loved one's medication
3am. The phone rings. It's the hospital. Your mother has been admitted as an emergency. The doctor asks for her medication, her allergies, her medical history. You rack your brain, scroll frantically through texts with your sister. Nothing. That heavy silence on the line. That feeling of complete helplessness.
The problem
Family carers frequently face night-time medical emergencies without immediate access to their loved one's health information. The SAMU (French emergency medical service) or the fire and rescue services need these details within seconds to adapt their emergency treatment protocol.
