'National Yellow Dot Program Saves Lives'

Help first responders find important medical information fast!

ROCHESTER, N.Y., Nov. 15, 2011 — When every second counts … Emergency responders are trained to look for a YELLOW DOT on the left rear window of the vehicle when approaching an accident. This indicates that there is a pocket in the glove compartment containing important medical documentation. Medical personnel can make the best decision regarding emergency treatment when they know the crash victim(s) may have health issues, a heart condition, or medical allergies. Certain medications could react adversely with drugs normally given in the emergency room. This can make the difference between life and death for the patient.

"This innovative program alerts first responders to a vehicle crash about the driver and passengers medical information including any medications the injured person(s) may be taking. This information can be critical to a severely injured crash victim during the first "golden hour" of emergency treatment that determines whether a crash victim will survive or not." – NewYorkDefensiveDrivingNow.com

This low-cost, life-saving program is known as the "Yellow Dot Program." Each "National Yellow Dot Program" Kit from StoreSmart.com provides you with everything needed to make your loved ones safer. Each kit contains a bright yellow decal for the car window, and a bright yellow plastic pocket to hold photos and medical information. Keep your pocket in the glove compartment for easy access during emergencies.

Each National Yellow Dot Kit, from StoreSMART.com, comes with a 3" laminated and fade-resistant, bright yellow window decal and a heavy duty, bright yellow plastic pocket. Place the decal on the outside of the left rear (driver's side) window of the vehicle. Put the yellow plastic pocket with your medical information inside your glove compartment.

The standard Yellow Dot Pocket is made of heavy-duty yellow vinyl plastic. The back pocket is 4 1/4" x 9 1/4", and will hold up to 10 pages of documents. In the front of the folder is a clear 2 1/2" x 4" pocket to slide in photos and business cards for added identification. Keep a list in the "Yellow Dot" pocket of medical conditions, medications, allergies, insurance, healthcare directives and more.
