"The
Vial of Life"

The
Union Township Fire Department participates in the Vial of
Life Program. The Vial of Life is a medication bottle that
contains paperwork for each family member. Each family member
fills out the paperwork with health information such as
medical history, medications and allergies. Once the
paperwork is completed, it is placed back in the medication
bottle and put on the door just inside the refrigerator. A
magnet is then placed on the refrigerator door to notify the
fire department that the Vial of Life is present.
The Vial of Life
ensures that emergency workers have access to your medical
history in the event that patients are unable to speak, are
unconscious or there are no family members or bystanders that
know your health history. To obtain your Vial of Life, visit
the Union Township/South Lebanon Fire Department and speak to
a firefighter.
